Package: python-wxgtk2.8
Version: 2.8.12.1-12
Severity: minor
Hello.
Img2py should not require an xserver. For example, it should be
available in a pdebuild chroot.
You may reproduce the failure with
# touch src.png
# unset DISPLAY
# python /usr/share/pyshared/wx-2.8-gtk2-unicode/wx/tools/img2py.py src.png
dest.py
Instead of creating dest.py, the interpreter aborts with the message
"Unable to access the X Display, is $DISPLAY set properly?"
The attached trivial patch seems to solve the problem.
Versions of packages python-wxgtk2.8 depends on:
ii python 2.7.3~rc2-1
ii python-wxversion 2.8.12.1-12
