Related to bug 2327. That bug refers to wxPython not recignising the "-opengl" USE. But even with "opengl" USE, the build fails looking for -lGLU. The gcc -L path is only /usr/lib. libGLU is in /usr/X11R6/lib. In /usr/lib the file libMesaGLU.so exists. I ln -s libMesaGLU libGLU and built away... p.s Love to know if this helps! ;)
I attached a working patch for setup.py...
Created attachment 1314 [details, diff] Patch for wxPython's setup.py
jon, you're a python dude
OOps! Didn't mean to close!
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. GLCANVAS takes priority over GIZMOS for adding support back in.
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.
erm, "python setup.py build | die" doesnt even make use of myconf the options are set explicetly in setup.py :/ I have no idea how to code the setting of this and/or other setup.py options into the ebuild. Cheers
I added the missing ${myconf}(s) Updated files should be available within 24 hours wxPython-2.3.2.1-r2 Please let me know if everything works for you now.
many reports of success. closing bug report.
