Hi, There is a wiki entry at
http://wiki.wxperl.info/w/index.php/Ubuntu_LTS_12_Notesdescribing how to get a working wxPerl install on Unbuntu LTS 12 using the latest wxWidgets version.
These instructions get you a working Wx::MediaCtrl and Wx::WebView as this Ubuntu version supports that.
Fedora 17 also supports wxWebView so maybe someone could translate the package requirement names and post a wiki entry for that OS.
Regards Mark
