Yes. I'm now rebuilding using your updated cygport file and examining the patches in order to better understand how it works. I think I must have gotten confused - I think it was the wxpython patches that can't be applied any more because the codebase has changed a lot, but I'll investigate that further. I did hear that some of the patches come from Gentoo, is that right? As you can tell, I'm very new to using patches and packaging for Cygwin, and I apologise for my newbie questions. >> We could have a wxPython 4 build for Python 3 only, and leave the Python >> 2 version as it is? > I'd be willing to consider that. Great, when I get it working, I'll see if I can get the existing patches to apply and then go from there. Hamish
