Hi,
for the official Debian package we need to specify which wx-config to use
because 2.6 can be installed on the same system.
'--with-wxwidgets=/path/to/wx-config2.8' should work, but it doesn't
because configure.in explicitly only accepts a binary called 'wx-config'
on line ~ 1740:
{{{
if test "`basename $with_wxwidgets`" = "wx-config" ; then
WX_CONFIG="$with_wxwidgets"
fi
}}}
can we change it to be more like --with-python= ?
{{{
if test "$with_python" != "yes" ; then
PY_CONFIG="$with_python"
fi
}}}
the real wx-config binary on debian is hidden behind some symlinks but on
a system with wx2.6 on it as well needs to be set to '--with-
wxwidgets=/usr/lib/wx/config/gtk2-unicode-release-2.8'
