Arch Linux

I went through and updated the PKGBUILDS, the download site was also wrong.

wxpython has been flagged out of date, so I will give Mr. Carvajal a few more weeks to update it, which should include these changes.

i do update the pkg, i still don't upload it because i want to include GTK2 support.. this worked fine under wxGTK, but i still can't get the new wxPython to compile with my current wxGTK build.. i think i will join the pkgs and see if works (wxpython sources includes wxgtk and other stuff).

That way, it would be just one of them (wxpython) that contains both.

I hope to have a working pkg this week with gtk2 support.

thanks.

hey Roberto. GTK2 is a very good step forward :P
there is also a patch out there for wxWidgets .
here is a post of me, with the links in one place:
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?p=34730#34730

if you think shipping wxWidgets and wxPython under ONE PKG, then you may want to include wxNET (wxnet.sf.net) and call that pkg wxAll or something like it.

ps. ok there are also other wx-bindings, but those 3 are most common [and have a bright future] :P

Roberto do you have progress in this matter?
Thanks in advance man!

good to know that everybody is on vacation

comming back to the initial issue of wxWindows vs wxWidgets:
ArchLinux refers to it as wxgtk which is still common since it represents the underlaying linux toolkit. Therefore, I will keep the name. either package is now using gtk2 and seems to work fine. So I close this one.

oops, just saw that you refered to the description I will change that in the next update. No need to recompile wxpython for that.
