Still xspp problems building Wx 0.93

[Johan Vromans]

Hi,

I'm trying to build Wx 0.93 on a clean Ubuntu 8.04.3 system.

Installed packages:

 libwxgtk2.8-0
 libwxgtk2.8-dev
 libwxbase2.8-dev
 libwxbase2.8-0
 libmodule-build-perl
 libmodule-pluggable-perl
 libtest-base-perl
 libtest-differences-perl
 g++
 libgtk2.0-dev
 libgl1-mesa-dev
 libglu1-mesa-dev 

Installed using CPAN:

 ExtUtils::CBuilder
 Alien::wxWidgets    (using the installed wxWidgets)
 ExtUtils::XSpp

While building Wx, I get the following error:

 xspp -t typemap.xsp XS/ItemContainer.xsp > XS/ItemContainer.xs
 /bin/sh: xspp: not found

According to the release notes, this should have been solved in 0.93.

As a work-around, I created a small wrapper /usr/bin/xspp:

  #!/bin/sh
  exec perl -MExtUtils::XSpp::Cmd -e xspp -- ${1+"$@"}

With this, build/install completes okay.
