OK. But I found on RH9 and FC3, as well as on Windows, that tcl/tk was preinstalled (or included with Python). I didn't find wxwidgets preinstalled on any of those systems. > On FreeBSD, it takes about 5 seconds of my time to install > wxPython from source: > > # cd /usr/ports/x11-toolkits/py-wxPython > # make install What about wxwidgets, which wxpython requires? > Then I can go do something useful while the package system downloads, > compiles and installs all the required software. The installer is going to download more stuff? Yuccch, I'd rather not need a network connection to do an install. Anyway, wxpython built ok on FC3. The problem was wxwidgets, which needed an obsolete version of GTK. I spent at least an hour or two messing around with it before deciding it wasn't worth the hassle. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
