    Tovid - wxpython - python-wxGTK error

    I am trying to get tovidgui to work, but due to it seems different naming of a dependency it can't. This is the error when I start it
    Code:
    flebber@linux-7uf9:~> tovidgui
    tovidgui requires wxPython 2.6; please install or upgrade wxPython.
    flebber@linux-7uf9:~> su
    Suse doesn't have wxPython but instead uses the renamed package python-wxGTK-2.8 so I have installed this but tovid doesn't release it is available and still produces the same error.

    Any Idea on how to overcome it.

    You could compile wxpython from source. You will need to have python-devel installed. I don't think python-wxGTK-2.8 is the full wxpython package.

    Well yes I guess that is my main option at the moment, I have sent a mesage to the packman mailing list to see if anything can be done regarding the listed dependencies in the rpm and whether tovid can use python-wxGTK or not.

    The author has updated the package to be compatible with wxpython 2.8. so
    Code:
    tovid | 0.31-0.pm.svn20071006
    is now in the repo. It appears to be working fine.

    Kudos to the author and the people at packman for such a speedy job.
