Tried it. No luck... After changing the version and the checksum, and converting the bz2 source file to gz, I could extract and patch. But when I start the build, I get essentially the same errors. Under port -v build, the first few are all in this vein: In file included from src/helpers.cpp:16: include/wx/wxPython/wxPython_int.h:19:19: error: wx/wx.h: No such file or directory This sounds like wxWidgets isn't putting its header files where it should, or wxpython isn't looking where it should. It would be interesting to try and put back the old version of wxWidgets the same way... Bas

I hope someone can help me with the following problem:
On a clean, updated, synced installation of MacPorts, OSX 10.4.8, I cannot build py-wxpython. All dependencies build and install fine, but py-wxpython itself fails with a slew of errors, the first few of which are:
src/helpers.cpp:2763: error: 'stream' was not declared in this scope src/helpers.cpp:2763: error: expected %<,%> or %<;%> before '{' token src/helpers.cpp:2786: error: 'bool wxPyImageHandler::LoadFile' is not a static member of 'class wxPyImageHandler' src/helpers.cpp:2786: error: 'wxImage' was not declared in this scope src/helpers.cpp:2786: error: 'image' was not declared in this scope src/helpers.cpp:2786: error: 'wxInputStream' was not declared in this scope src/helpers.cpp:2786: error: 'stream' was not declared in this scope src/helpers.cpp:2787: error: expected primary-expression before "bool" src/helpers.cpp:2787: error: expected primary-expression before "int" src/helpers.cpp:2787: error: initializer expression list treated as compound expression
I get the impression there's a small typo somewhere in helpers.cpp, but I don't know any c++...
You could download 2.8.0.1 from http://www.wxpython.org, find the checksum (openssl sha1 /path-to-download/wxPython-src) and then change the version and checksum in the portfile, then try to install it like normal. The old version must have broken with the wxwidget 2.8.0 update. If it works then the port could be updated. mww is the maintainer but he hasn't been active lately. I'm on a slow download link and can't try it now.
