In my quest to build a stand-alone perl with wx I got to another issue I don't understand showing my total lack of understanding of the build system.
When I am trying to build Alien::wxWidgets and want it to download the source of wxWidgets the README.txt tells me the following: Important: either wx-config must be in the PATH or the WX_CONFIG environment variable must be set to the full path to wx-config. The environment WX_CONFIG variable can also be used to specify a different wx-config. So where is wx-config coming from? It is needed when I run perl Build but that is before it builds wxWidgets so unless I already have a wxWidgets on the system that installed the wx-config where does it come from? If I let it use the wx-config of the system, then how will it be related to the one I am just about to build? Gabor
