Hi Stuart! Thank you so much. I've been able to build CodeLite from source code thanks to the port you gave me. The only issue I had was that I had to install sqlite3 from ports because the version installed from the package manager was sqlite3.37.30 instead of sqlite3.37.31 and I don't know why because I've updated both system base (to -CURRENT) and ports (using pkg_add -u) as described in the FAQ and OpenBSD guides (I did it yesterday afternoon).
I didn't have any problem running it on OpenBSD although I'll be testing some time. I didn't realize how difficult it was to build from source because when I started using it (four years ago) I started from the precompiled binaries available on the website so I'm sorry for that. NOTE: The problem you had with x11/wxWidgets,-media were caused for some dependency using the wxMediaCtrl (I had that problem too when I built from source code, but I don't remember if the problem was caused by the program or maybe a submodule). So, thank you so much for your help. You saved me a lot of time.
