Can't uninstall wxPython


I have two versions of wxPython installed on my Mac (OS X Tiger). One
is version 2.6.1.0 and the other is version 2.6.0.0. I want to keep
the newer version, but I can't seem to uninstall either one using the
uninstall_wxPython.py script.

When I run that script, I get this error message:
$ sudo: uninstall_wxPython.py: command not found

Is there any way I could delete one, or both, of these installations
manually? For some reason, whenever I try to run a wxPython script, it
uses the older version of wxPython and it doesn't always run correctly.

Thanks in advance.

If it has the x bit set you will have to do something like this:

sudo ./uninstall_wxPython.py

Otherwise pass "python" explicitly:

sudo python uninstall_wxPython.py

I think that it is going to wipe out all your wxPython installs...so
you will need to reinstall the version you wanted.

HTH,
