[GRASSGUI] wxgrass does not see wx on import

[Michael Barton]

We initially had a problem with the wxpython installation on FC6. Once we
manually moved the built binaries from the source folder to the
python/lib/site-packages (need to see where this is on your system), it was
fine. You can also alter your PYTHONPATH variable to find it in other
locations, but moving it to the "normal" location was the most successful.
Don't for get to move ALL the binary stuff that is built.

Wish I could be more specific about the files, but it was pretty obvious
when we looked at them. On my mac (here at home) it includes directories
wx-2.8-mac-ansi and wxaddons, along with files wx.pth,
wxaddons-2.8.1.1-py2.5.eg-info, wxPython_common-2.8.1.1-py2.5.egg-info, and
wxversion.py. I'm pretty sure that we used Python 2.4 on FC6.

Whichever Python version you use, you need to make sure you have the
wxPython version to match.
