Hi.

I just compiled wxPython 2.7 and 2.8 CVS under GoboLinux and run into
a problem when I was done compiling. I followed the build instructions
in BUILD.html and added just --enable-unicode.

For some reason wx.pth wouldn't work so I instead made a symbolic link
"wx" pointing to "wx-2.8-gtk2-unicode/wx". This at least made me able
to import wx.

I get this traceback from my demo.py:
raceback (most recent call last):
File "/Programs/WxPython/CVS/lib/python2.5/site-packages/wx-2.8-gtk2-unicode/wx/_misc.py",

item is a StaticText: <wx._controls.StaticText; proxy of <Swig Object
of type 'wxStaticText *' at 0x8510c08> >

I suspect this is a problem with my build, however I am at loss where
to start figuring out what is wrong... I hope anyone can help?

(cross posted to forum. I will post solution there when this is sorted out)

The first thing you should try is a newer version of the demo. 2.6.1.0
is 1.5 years old, and you are trying to use it with a brand-new version
of wxPython.

But even so this should not fail. It would seem to indicate that there
is a problem with the data type data that SWIG maintains. (That's what
is used to know if one swig object (a proxy of a C++ object) is an
instance of a particular type.)
