 I think there is more than one...

 I didn't try it in the trunk yet to be honest. But the errors you get are
still strange:

KW> cp: cannot stat `/home/kip/Projects/Others/wxWidgets/samples/.svn/

 For example I have no idea why does it look for Makefile.in under .svn...

 This could probably be corrected by running "make allmo" manually in this
directory. Although the script should take care of this itself, of course.

 wxPython is now in another place (relative to wx) in the svn and the
Debian files haven't been updated for it yet.
