Sorry,
I'm really confused:
Marco,
Maybe we've already answered this, but if not, I'll give it a go.
1) do I need to enable both Python and wxPython to let the new GRASS GUI work? or do I need only to enable wx-widgets?
For the GUI to work, you don't need to enable either of these. They are only for compiling the in-development wxPython digitizer, vdigit. All the rest of the GUI will work without this, since the wxPython part are just ASCII python script files that get copied from source to $GISBASE/etc/wxpython.
2) about the second case: basing on the fact that I need Python installed to let wxPython work, how could I set them if I use a prebuilt installer for GRASS while I must compile wxPython by myself (because the prebuilt installer doesn't come with the needed wx-config file)?
Just install the prebuilt binaries for Python AND for wxPython. They are from different sites. No need to compile either.

I would like to get myself up to date on the new wxPython GUI and I am
wondering whether the suggestions in gui/wxpython/README are up to date.
Fore example README says
GRASS GIS >= 6.3
Python >= 2.4
wxPython >= 2.8.1.1
but Marco talks about Python 2.5.2 and wxPython 2.8.7.1
(I have 2.4 and need to install wxPython - what should I get?)
README says you need to run make and install it, it is my understanding
that is not needed anymore ?
1 - INSTALLATION
Go to:
$ cd gui/wxpython
and run
$ make
Thank you,
Helena

No.

Python 2.4 and wxPython 2.8.1.1 should be enough. On my laptop I am
using Python 2.4 without any problems.
README says you need to run make and install it, it is my understanding
that is not needed anymore ?
1 - INSTALLATION
Go to:
$ cd gui/wxpython
and run
$ make
No, it is not need (see gui/Makefile). I will update README.
