couldn't get wxPython to work but didn't need it - the python module and action scripts is enough. I still have problems building in another directory. This is what I did:
cmake -DKICAD_SCRIPTING_WXPYTHON=OFF -DKICAD_SCRIPTING=ON -DKICAD_SCRIPTING_ACTION_MENU=ON -DKICAD_SCRIPTING_MODULES=ON ; make ; sudo make install Thanks, and thanks again for all the work on kicad.
