Package: python-wxgtk2.6 Version: 2.6.1.2 Severity: important If libwxgtk2.4-python is installed, the WX utility xpngcc in my package xpilot-ng-common breaks. Clearly I could work around the problem by conflicting with libwxgtk2.4-python in xpilot-ng-common, but I don't understand why bits of python-wxgtk2.6 are apparently trying to load code from libwxgtk2.4-python. By experimentation, I did what xpngcc does, which is:
>>> import wx >>> print wx.VERSION (2, 6, 1, 2, 'pre') But a user reports that when libwxgtk2.4-python is installed on his system, xpngcc throws this error: TypeError: new_wxPanel() takes at least 2 arguments (1 given) in /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/wxPython/windows.py Performing "dpkg -S" on the user's system reveals that this file is owned by libwxgtk2.4-python. I don't think this should happen. Therefore, I conclude that python-wxgtk2.6 in its current state must conflict with libwxgtk2.4-python. Obviously that is bad news for the 6 packages that still depend on the older library, but I can't see how it can be avoided. If I have missed some other way to resolve this within xpilot-ng-common itself, please provide an adequate explanation and reassign the bug to xpilot-ng-common.
