which version of wxpython and bittornado are you using?
decreasing majority. it's a normal bug
I have the same problem whenever I try to start btdownloadgui.py I get this wxPython is either not installed or has not been installed properly Have been trying all kinds of humbug fixes from the forums and the net... nothing helps. Something went kaputt today with the portage update :(
(In reply to comment #3) > I have the same problem whenever I try to start btdownloadgui.py I get this > wxPython is either not installed or has not been installed properly > and you've either not written which versions of bittornado and wxpython are you using...
well, praised be the Lord. Found a sulution on a German site. It is a wxpython problem. I had two wxpythons installed side by side. So I just did emerge -C wxpython-2.4.2.4-r2 and voil
well, praised be the Lord. Found a sulution on a German site. It is a wxpython problem. I had two wxpythons installed side by side. So I just did emerge -C wxpython-2.4.2.4-r2 and voilà bittorent works and opens again. I will probably have to mask this version in some way, as the 2.6 wxpython works but not the earlier.
it's not a solution. bittornado works with both wxpython installed. please - try recompile 2.4* with the same USE flags as 2.6
Ok. I did that for eight hours today, back and forth and to and fro and it just did not work, just complained over the silly 'wxPython is either not installed or has not been installed properly.' I have the latest unstable bittornado but the stable pythons. Even did the /usr/sbin/python-updater, but it did not solve anything and neither did revdep-rebuild. Then I deleted bittornado and put in bittorrent instead - same problem, the graphical interface did not open up. But now it works, so I guess I will have to manually install all updates and skip the wxpython until the 2.4 wxpython is obsoleted.
python guys: can you explain why it works on my system (and works for other users) with both wxpython-2.4 and 2.6 installed at the same time and doesn't work for Mr. Borje Holmberg ?
I now did -uDav world and got the wxpython 2.4 installed and bittornado stopped working. Then I tried to reinstall 2.6.1.0 and emerge -pv says: emerge -pv wxpython-2.6.1.0 These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies !!! Problem in dev-python/wxpython-2.6.1.0 dependencies. !!! "Specific key requires an operator (dev-python/wxpython-2.6.1.0) (try adding an '=')" exceptions Would be nice to figure out what the "key" is. Regards, linfan
'emerge =wxpython-2.6.1.0" or "emerge wxpython". it's written in manual pages...
OK. But no difference. btdownloadgui.py /Desktop/Crutch* wxPython is either not installed or has not been installed properly. will now delete 2.4 and mask it Thanks for your kind support.
OK. Referring to bug nr 108643. Seems I am not the only one :)
Please try wxpython-2.4.2.4-r3 added to CVS today and let us know if that fixes it.
Unfortunately I do not know how to operate CVS :( I did the temporary workaround from bug #108643 "mv /usr/lib/wx{,Python} /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/" on wxpython-2.4.2.4-r2, which was the only one that emerge sync would give me. Now bittornado works again. Hopefully the -r3 will turn up in due time :) Regards linfan
as far as i understand -r3 fixes this problem and bug can be closed. please reopen if anyone still has problems

Ok sorry for wasting everyones time and double posting my last post which I'm sure sent you all emails. For some reason I re-emerged everything 2 more times and for some reason it works now. Don't know what the problem was but I guess it was just a problem compiling or something. Sorry agian for wasting your time!
