Hi, Thanks for the info, unfortunately I am using wxwidgets from fink. Oh well, maybe I'll try to uninstall and have Alien::Wx install it for me. Or, I could try and take the patch from Alien and apply it to the fink source before rebuilding. Thanks a lot, Athanasios On Sun, Nov 25, 2012 at 6:40 AM, Mark Dootson via RT <bug...@rt.cpan.org>wrote: > <URL: https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=81416 > > > Hi, > > On 24/11/2012 23:00, athanasios douitsis via RT wrote: > > Queue: Wx > > Ticket<URL: https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=81416> > > > > Btw, 01load.t fails with segfault.
