While we're on the subject of how Python was built... Since
wxPython is a C++ extension some platforms and/or compilers will
require that the Python executable was linked with the C++ linker
in order for everything to work correctly. If you build and
install Python yourself then this is easy to take care of,
otherwise you may have to mess with binary packages or bribe your
system administrator...
In my case on Solaris wxPython applications would core dump on
exit. The core file indicated that the fault happened after
_exit() was called and the run-time was trying to execute cleanup
code. After relinking the Python executable the problem went away.
To build Python to link with the C++ linker do this:
cd Python-2.0 # wherever the root of the source tree is
rm python # in case it's still there from an old build
make LINKCC=g++ # or whatever your C++ command is
make install
C. Change to the root wxPython directory and look at the setup.py
file. This is the script that configures and defines all the
information that Distutils needs to build wxPython. There are some
