I'm reluctant for three reasons: 1) I and other people (a niche, but a stable niche, and if I don't misinterpret popcon, its 0.03% of active users locate it in the top 10% of debian packages) use it 2) to the best of my knowledge, there are no alternatives (i.e. programs allowing to install a font without admin powers or messing with shell/hidden files), 3) it works flawlessly with wx 2.8, and I expect the fix for 3.0 to be easy. > > Olly, in #757886 you state that "everything seems to be fine... can you > > confirm > > with wxpython3.0 3.0.1.1+dfsg-2 ? > > Will retest it when I have a suitable machine in front of me. > > But the error messages in #765487 do seem to indicate how to solve the > problem: > > .../src/common/stdpbase.cpp(62): assert "traits" failed in Get(): create > wxApp before calling this > > i.e. make sure that the wxApp object is created before this code gets > called. > This is easily fixed.¹ I will try to also fix the rest,¹ but since you reported fontypython working with wx 3.0, and since I am not a wx expert, I was wondering whether only some systems were affected, and why.
