Hi all,
Someone on irc brought to my attention he could not install wxPerl on
Kubuntu.
Since I've done so recently on Ubuntu I did some tests and found out
that Wx 0.85 does not play well with libwxgtk2.8-dev.
Installing Wx 0.84 works fine.
I recently build Wx 0.85 on another linux distro where I had to build
wxWidgets myself and there it worked fine so I'm pretty sure it's a
combo with the prebuild binaries from *buntu/debian.
Here's a bit of the error output:
(BTW: the output on all builds is filled with these messages:
"Unrecognized argument in LIBS ignored: '-Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions'"
"RichText.c:12098: warning: deprecated conversion from string
constant to 'char*'
)
