Did you ever sort all this out?

If not I have a few suggestions for you to try.

1) use cpan -i Wx (or whatever engine you use) and let cpan sort out the
dependencies.

2) What version of wxWidgets are you trying to install?  I don't imagine
the problem is perlbrew as it is quite popular and must have been tested
before now.  I have difficulty installing 2.8.11 with the current
download so I use an earlier baseline (#3418), like this:

cd ~
rm -rf Alien-wxWidgets
svn co https://svn.code.sf.net/p/wxperl/code/Alien-wxWidgets/trunk@3418
Alien-wxWidgets
cd ~/Alien-wxWidgets
perl Build.PL --wxWidgets-extraflags="--enable-graphics_ctx
--disable-compat26 --enable-mediactrl --with-libjpeg=builtin
--with-libpng=builtin --with-regex=builtin --with-libtiff=builtin
--with-zlib=builtin --with-expat=builtin --with-libxpm=builtin
--with-gnome-print --with-gnomeprintui" --wxWidgets-build='yes'
--wxWidgets-source='tar.gz'  --wxWidgets-unicode=1 --wx-unicode='yes'
--wxWidgets-build-opengl=0 --wxWidgets-version=2.8.11

perl Build  # Download and compile wxWidgets.
perl Build install
ldconfig
cd ..

cd ~
rm -rf wxPerl
svn co https://svn.code.sf.net/p/wxperl/code/wxPerl/trunk@3418 wxPerl
cd ~/wxPerl
perl Makefile.PL
make
make install
cd ~

Good luck,

Steve.


Note that there are incompatibilities between Wx and Perl v5.20.0. Use v5.20.1 instead. But these happen further along than you have gotten so far.

There are already a couple of (unanswered) bug reports on not being able to compile this module on OS X:

Plus this one that the requestor managed to finally install
