problem installing wxPython 2.5.3, wxWidgets installed ok

[timothy.williams]

I'm trying to install wxPython 2.5.3.1 using Python 2.3.2 on a Fedora 2
machine.

I have python in a non-standard place, but I'm using --prefix with the
configure script to point to where I have everything. The make install
in $WXDIR seemed to go fine. I have the libxw* libraries in my lib/
directory

libwx_base-2.5.so@ libwx_gtk_adv-2.5.so.3.0.0*
libwx_base-2.5.so.3@ libwx_gtk_core-2.5.so@
libwx_base-2.5.so.3.0.0* libwx_gtk_core-2.5.so.3@
libwx_base_net-2.5.so@ libwx_gtk_core-2.5.so.3.0.0*
libwx_base_net-2.5.so.3@ libwx_gtk_gl-2.4.so@
libwx_base_net-2.5.so.3.0.0* libwx_gtk_gl-2.4.so.0@
libwx_base_xml-2.5.so@ libwx_gtk_gl-2.4.so.0.1.1*
libwx_base_xml-2.5.so.3@ libwx_gtk_html-2.5.so@
libwx_base_xml-2.5.so.3.0.0* libwx_gtk_html-2.5.so.3@
libwx_gtk-2.4.so@ libwx_gtk_html-2.5.so.3.0.0*
libwx_gtk-2.4.so.0@ libwx_gtk_xrc-2.5.so@
libwx_gtk-2.4.so.0.1.1* libwx_gtk_xrc-2.5.so.3@
libwx_gtk_adv-2.5.so@ libwx_gtk_xrc-2.5.so.3.0.0*
libwx_gtk_adv-2.5.so.3@

I also have a wx/ directory under my lib. directory.

The problem is when I try to do a 'python setup.py install' in the
../wxPython directory. I get a message about not finding a config file
for wx-config and then several errors during gcc compiles.

python setup.py build

Found wx-config: /project/c4i/Users_Share/williams/Linux/bin/wx-config
Using flags: --toolkit=gtk2 --unicode=no --version=2.5

Warning: No config found to match:
/project/c4i/Users_Share/williams/Linux/bin/wx-config --toolkit=gtk2
--unicode=no --version=2.5 --cxxflags
in /project/c4i/Users_Share/williams/Linux/lib/wx/config
If you require this configuration, please install the desired
library build. If this is part of an automated configuration
test and no other errors occur, you may safely ignore it.
You may use wx-config --list to see all configs available in
the default prefix.

Why isn't there a -I../include switch on the compile line, and how do I
reconfigure it so it does?

Thanks for any help.

(snip) pay attention: some of your current applications will not work with that version. In my case, all the apps I have wrotten before and with previous 2.4 as well with the boa-constructor IDE

So are you saying that 2.5.3.1 is not ready for prime time? How does
your reply address my 'python setup.py install' problem?

I don't have any wx applications to speak of yet. Just some of the
tutorial examples.
