Re: bug in Python wxWidgets

The machine I have available for testing this is also a bit out
of date at the moment - py26-wxWidgets-2.8.10.1nb2 python26-2.6.4nb4 -
I got the error as well (i386 if that turns out to be related).

I'd think the next thing to try would be to try a build against
python 2.5 (or maybe even 2.4)-

(see description for PYTHON_DEFAULT_VERSION in 
/usr/pkgsrc/lang/python/pyversion.mk)


often there are issues with language changes and add-on modules with
python version changes.

First thing to do is to find the issue directly and notify the
wxwidgets people - if they have a fix or a workaround it might make 
sense for a pkgsrc patch - but, possibly not

(depends on their approach / where the bug is)

probably a good idea to report you also saw the issue as well-
that shows it's more widespread - it didn't look like from
that thread that anyone dug too deep on it..

it could also be related to the swig version too - not clear on this.

but yeah - first i'd try other PYTHON_VERSIONS / ensure the pkg's
are using the latest versions. (see also pkgsrc guide ch20 , 21)

and remember - porting the software is the *fun part* !! :)

bug in Python wxWidgets

2011-01-03 Thread Pierre Abbat
I set up a Tor relay (Tor is in pkgsrc, can be installed with pkgin, and needs 
just a few lines of config to make it work) and then found a program called 
TorChat and tried to run it. I got this error: "TypeError: wx.Window, 
wx.Sizer, wx.Size, or (w,h) expected for item". I succeeded in getting 
TorChat running on my Linux box and talked with Bernd, the developer. It 
turns out it's a known bug in some builds of the Python-wxWidgets interface, 
and he sent me the attached test program. Just like TorChat, the test program 
brings up a window on Linux and issues an error on DragonFly. I'm running 
2010Q2 on DFly. He suggested that I file a bug report, but I'm not sure 
whether the bug is in DFly or in pkgsrc. The versions are python26-2.6.5nb1 
and py26-wxWidgets-2.8.10.1nb3. (The Linux box has Python 2.5.) If you have 
Q3, or you have Q2 on something other than DFly, could you try it out and let 
me know if you get the error or not? That should tell me where to file the 
bug report.
