I've just reinstalled python-wxversion package. This action added the file

/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/wx.pth

which is the part of the package but was missing on my computer. This
may by some Ubuntu packaging problem (this would answer the question
why other distributions are not affected).

For me, it is solved. I don't know how to avoid this in the future.
