I was googling all over the net trying to find a sollution to
wx.animate problem and all I found was your post. After scratching
around in the code a bit, I did find a solution...
You obviously got as far as installing it, so after that you do the
following:
edit the file /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/_spe/Menu.py from line
720 and add comments as follows:
##from wx.animate import GIFAnimationCtrl
class Status(wx.StatusBar):
def __init__(self,parent=None,id=-1):
wx.StatusBar.__init__(self,parent=parent,id=id)
self.SetFieldsCount(5)
self.SetStatusWidths([20, -1, 90, 90, 90])
## self.throbber = Throbber(self,'throbber_still.gif')
## self.throbber.Play()
self.SetStatusText(STATUS,1)
##class Throbber(GIFAnimationCtrl):
## def __init__(self,statusBar,fileName,position=0):
...and comment out *everything* from here on down
I hope it helps you out. Kind regards.

PS - If it works for you, would you mind posting to the newsgroup so
the next person with this problem can also find the sollution :)
