I am not sure myself, although I vaguely remember that this error is the result 
of an earlier problem. Do you have a more complete log (it should be in 
~/.chandler/<<random directory name>>/chandler.log) ?

I'm pretty sure that if you get past this error with the non-chandler 
wxWidgets, you will run into unrecoverable errors a little later in the startup 
sequence.

I'm not sure if that is a legal behaviour on the part of the server.

The most recent system I have built Chandler on was Ubuntu Karmic last year (I 
have never tried Debian itself). Mostly that was just tweaking the 
dependencies, if I remember correctly, but you can check out the scripts at:
