Note however that the OP is using Linux, where the wxWidgets uses completely different libraries, and that's where the problem occurs. Besides, it's not a Python exception in the Debian testing case, it's a segmentation fault in the underlying GLib code that causes Python to crash. BTW, Is the current Debian testing really equipped with Python 2.3.5? It's a very sorry state of affairs if the testing version of a major Linux release isn't using Python 2.4, which was released in November 2004. I can understand why people a leaving stock Debian for Ubuntu... -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
