Usually there will be a link to a couple different builds on wxpython.org. I can see where it would be pretty easy to grab the wrong one. > No this was definitely a GTK issue.

I usually keep /home on a separate partition. That lets me wipe / and do a fresh install without affecting my personal stuff. I will say that using apt/yum to upgrade works pretty well these days, as long as the jump isn't too far (i.e. more than one major release). Still, I too prefer the fresh install, just out of paranoia probably.
