Description Martin Mokrejš 2012-12-21 12:28:42 UTC 
While inspecting output of some configure script I found:

<quote>

An error occurred while calling wx-config:

No profile currently selected

Please use `eselect wxwidgets` to select an available profile and try again.

vostro ~ # eselect wxwidgets list
Available wxWidgets profiles:
  [1]   gtk2-unicode-release-2.8
vostro ~ # eselect wxwidgets set 1

Setting wxWidgets profile to gtk2-unicode-release-2.8

vostro ~ # eselect wxwidgets list
Available wxWidgets profiles:
  [1]   gtk2-unicode-release-2.8 *
vostro ~ # 

I propose that if there is only one target then eselect should set it as the default automatically.

I think that makes sense.  We're a lot better off these days regarding wx SLOT breakage, and people are used to using eselect now.

On the other hand this does turn up a lot of ebuild brokenness.

Fixed in eselect-wxwidgets-20131230.
