Re: bug in Python wxWidgets
Pierre Abbat wrote: 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.) The machine I have available for testing this is also a bit out of date at the moment - py26-wxWidgets-2.8.10.1nb2 python26-2.6.4nb4 - I got the error as well (i386 if that turns out to be related).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* !! :) - Chris
bug in Python wxWidgets
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. www.torproject.org http://code.google.com/p/torchat/ http://wxpython-users.1045709.n5.nabble.com/TypeError-wx-Window-wx-Sizer-wx-Size-or-w-h-expected-for-item-td2361355.html Pierre -- lo ponse be lo mruli po'o cu ga'ezga roda lo ka dinko test.py Description: application/python
