Description Matus Kocka 2012-10-19 13:13:58 UTC
Hello,
could you please update wxWidgets in fedora to version 2.9.3 or the latest?
the latest one is 2.9.4

http://www.wxwidgets.org/

Comment 1 Dan Horák 2012-10-19 13:25:41 UTC
It can't updated, it's API/ABI incompatible, you can grab my rpms for the 2.9 series from http://fedora.danny.cz/danny/development/x86_64/repoview/index.html

It can be submitted as a separate package for review though with keeping wxGTK 2.8 available in parallel.

Comment 2 Dan Horák 2012-10-19 13:30:29 UTC
Also the 2.9 series itself doesn't has a stable API/ABI which means all apps linked with it would need rebuild and/or fixed when it should be updated.

Comment 3 Matus Kocka 2012-10-20 15:58:35 UTC
Ok, submit 2.9 as separate package can works. I will try that. Thanks

Is there now a package in Fedora 19 for wxWidgets 2.9.x? I see the package you mentioned here 

http://sharkcz.livejournal.com/11207.html
http://fedora.danny.cz/danny/18/SRPMS/repoview/wxGTK3.html

is last updated for Fedora 18. (The srpm does seem to build on F19).

Thanks for maintaining wxWidgets!

You were optimistic that the situation will be better with version 3.
Is it possible to update now?

There is a wxGTK3 package for quite some time.

Uh, thanks.

Somehow I thought, this would be for python3 or so.

it should be wxWidgets 3.x built against gtk3 AFAIK, wxPython will be another story ...
