[wxpython-dev] problems building wxpython-2.8.8.0

Hello!

I am the maintainer of the wxPython build-script for Slackware, which is
available here: http://slackbuilds.org/repository/12.1/libraries/wxPython/

I just saw the update to 2.8.8.0 and tried updating the script for it, but it
wouldn't build. Here's the error I get:

I took a closer look and thought this might be somehow related to
libgnomeprint. I checked whether wxPython configured with "--with-gnomeprint"
and it did. So I tried "--without-gnomeprint", as I didn't have libgnomeprint
installed. However, it wouldn't work either; same error.
Next thought was, maybe libgnomeprint is now a hard dependency, so I installed
libgnomeprint (2.18.0) and tried again. But I would still get the same error.

Can anyone help me please?

Grs,
Heinz
