Hi!

I just remerged on this machine without problems.  I'll check my machine at home
tonight.

Can you provide some more info?

1. version of python

1a. Did you recently upgrade python versions?

2. nvidia?

3.  Does the reported error occur during the wxPython build or a dependency?

4. Do you have a libGLU.* on your system any where? run 'locate libGLU'
Comment 2 Tod M. Neidt (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-04-28 04:50:18 UTC
I remerged this ok on my other machine.  So that two that are ok, one with
nvidia, one without.  Without further info, such as asked for above, I'm
resolving this as WORKSFORME.

Please reopen if more info becomes available.

If you have anything to add please do

 Hi, ive also got the exact same problem....      the emerge for wxPython fails      i discovered i had 2 version of python..      python-2.2-r4   python-2.2-r6    so i removed python-2.2-r4 (emerge unmerge python-2.2-r4)      problem still exists      i have the following libGLU libs installed      ./usr/X11R6/lib/libGLU.a   ./usr/X11R6/lib/libGLU.so.1.3   ./usr/X11R6/lib/libGLU.la   ./usr/X11R6/lib/libGLU.so.1   ./usr/X11R6/lib/libGLU.so      I dont have any nvidia stuff installed (matrox g400) that i've found.     i have the following installed  wxGTK-2.3.2-r1  gtk+-1.2.10-r7        How this helps... If any more info is required let me know.      Al   ifni@blueyonder.co.uk

I have a post submitted to the wx-dev list and am waiting for a response.

Of the research I have done so far, it looks like things SHOULD be working 
properly as the stated functions are declared in <wx/imagtiff.h> which is 
included by <wx/image.h> which is in the src/gtk/image.cpp file which is 
failing compile.

For some reason the compiler isn't including these files otherwise the 
functions would already by declared.

As I do more research and find a solution I will post on this bug report.

wxPython-2.3.2.1-r1 has been updated and it should now compile without error.
GLCANVAS and GIZMOS extensions are now forced to not install as they are 
failing compiles currently.

The new ebuild should be available on rsync servers within 24 hours.
Please report back on this bug report if compilation was successful.

When either or both of the extensions are fixed, wxPython will move to -r2 as 
additional support is added into the ebuild.
Comment 8 Nick Hadaway 2002-08-29 13:39:33 UTC
both the GLCANVAS and GIZMOS extensions have been enabled.   
wxPython-2.3.2.1-r2 contains the fixes.  PyOpenGL is now a required dependancy  
for opengl support.  The new ebuilds for PyOpenGL and wxPython should be  
available in portage within 24 hours.  
  
emerge rsync  
emerge wxPython 
 
Please report back on this bug with your experiences with the new ebuilds. 
Comment 9 Nick Hadaway 2002-09-02 11:25:40 UTC
many reports of compilation success.  closing bug report.
