Hi!
I would like to install wxPython htat is available in woody, but not in
potato. Last time I tried to download something thru dselect I broke my
sources file.
My main sources are a 3cd set and this broke last time when I trid to update
the packages files.
My q is:
How do I get wxPython, and realted, into my box without breaking the packages
files? Do I have to download all the packages one by one, I think not but how
else?
This q might completely confused/confusing but I'm a newbie to using dselect
(and I suppose you'll tell me to use apt, but that tool I never tried)
Download the source, the (.orig.tar.gz, .dsc and .diff.gz file of the package)
by hand or thru apt-get source, unpack with dpkg-source -x package.dsc and
build (probably ./debian/rules binary iirc, correct me if i am wrong)
this will link it to the correct libc version. you possibly need to do the same
with some libs it depends on not available in potato (or too old)
