Ok, now I've tried it again with 2.8.11, which is the widgets of my last successful install.
So to summarise my 11.4 installations (from memory), I've got: - cpan -I Wx produces a functioning installation but without media. - Both my alien installs with 2.9.0 and 2.8.11 crash with unwrapped GetCount in wxDataViewVirtualListModel (see below). I'll have a look at the wrapping code when I get a chance. In the meantime, as always, insight welcome.
