Sorry
to come into this this late, but some background info for this might
be useful. There would be no trouble at all keeping wxWidgets at the
latest stable version, but and this is a big but, the upstream
maintainer of wxPython has the convention of including wxWidgets
sources in his own releases. Now there would be no trouble, if the
releases were in sync, but it so happens that with some of wxPython
releases the included wxWidgets has some features not present in the
stable version.
With 2.8.9 and 2.8.10 there are these discrepancies, due to which
the downgrade was necessary.
PS I tried a few times to get the wxPython release system to make
more sense by having the releases in sync (wouldn't even be
necessary to include wxWidgets!), but with no success. Sorry for the
tone of this message, but I am quite bitter about this, problems are
thrown upon us with no way out.
I went through the same thing with py26-wxwidgets as the above which
accounts for the recent back and forth until all three were in sync.
Thank you for clarifying for the list, jyrki.
