[wxPython-dev] installing from source

[Green Kobold]

Hi all,

This post actually was resolved in wxPython-users. Here is the final message:

Its done. With your explanation about usc2, usc4. I downloaded by apt
the required libs and then ran setup.py without those strange flags.
Thanks Robin, with your hints I could situate what I was doing in
relation to what had to be done. BTW. what whre these options doing:
"build_ext --inplace", and why was it keeping me from installing it to
my python?

cheers!
