[GRASS-user] Grass 6.4.0RC6 cannot find wxPython 2.8.1.1.

[Pekka Hurskainen]

Dear list,

I'm a complete beginner with Grass (and python), and I've seem to be stuck
with a probably quite trivial problem.

I'm running Grass ver. 6.4.0RC6-2 on Ubuntu 9.10 (karmic). I've installed
Ubuntu from the repos with Synaptic.

I have also manually installed wxPython 2.8.11.0-0 (package
python-wxversion) following these instructions:
http://wiki.wxpython.org/InstallingOnUbuntuOrDebian

While trying to start grass with "grass -wxpython" command, I get the
following error message:

----- clip ----

Cleaning up temporary files ...
Starting GRASS ...
ERROR: wxGUI requires wxPython >= 2.8.1.1. Requested version of wxPython not
found.
Error in GUI startup. If necessary, please
report this error to the GRASS developers.
Switching to text mode now.
Hit RETURN to continue...

The tcltk gui works fine.

I couldn't find any help in the FAQ or mailing list archives. Maybe some
paths need to be set, but how? Any pointers?

Thanks,

Pekka
