There were a couple of complains lately that wxGUI on Linux is broken. I just want to mention that wxGUI works for me again (no warnings, no errors) after I downgraded swig from 1.3.39 to 1.3.35 on Fedora 10.
Maybe downgrading swig helps on other Linux distros too.
hope that helps,

right, currently key point is swig version you are using during
compilation of vdigit or nviz. This should be change in the future,
broken vdigit or nviz should not affect the whole wxGUI.

I am using
rpm -qf /usr/bin/swig
swig-1.3.38-2mdv2009.1
I have that version since May 2009 and wxGUI worked. Only
later (some weeks ago) it got broken.

Unfortunately it does...

probably wxPython has been updated(?), currently you need to use the
same version of swig which has been used for compiling wxPython.

I have the suspicion, as indirectly hinted by Martin, that on a number of Linux distros the wx components and swig got out of sync with recent updates provided by these distros. Never touch a running system...

Ah, good hint!

Perhaps it's broken here since 24 Aug ... (cannot remember).
Last question before I investigate: are all wx libraries above used? Sorry
for my ignorance... I just want to hunt down the offending package and
not ruffle the feathers for unrelated libraries.

(meanwhile updated to Mandriva 2010.0, same problem)
I use the distro versions...
This should be change in the future,
broken vdigit or nviz should not affect the whole wxGUI.
Do you think that this could be implemented? In January I would
like to showcase the new GUI in a couple of occasions but I
cannot start it for some months now.
Don't remember how to debug that, though.
