Good day folks, I am trying to update my wxPython package so I can run Boa Constructor. I have tried installing from source, but encountered some errors which I don't remember now, but could probably replicate if need be.
I also tried installing via apt-get, which left me with an outdated distrobution of wxPython, and currently i'm getting the message when trying to start Boa: Sorry! This version of Boa requires atleast wxPython 2.4.0.7 So I tried to get the packages from the wxPython site, but they only have packages for Redhat, and I think Mandrake. I then tried to download and convert with alien two packages: // redhat 9 package for gtk2-ansi Python 2.2: alien --to-deb wxPython2.5-gtk2-ansi-2.5.3.1-rh9_py2.2.i386.rpm //redhat 9 package for gtk-ansi python 2.2: alien --to-deb wxpython2.5-gtk-ansi-2.5.3.1-rh9_py2.2.i386.rpm the first pacakge for gtk2-ansi won't even work, but the second package for gtk-ansi creates a new deb package just fine. This package can be run with Package Manager it seems, but when I try to install them I get the following errors: // BEGIN ERROR <2.5-gtk-ansi-2.5.3.1-rh9_py2.2.i386.rpm;echo RESULT=$? error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - No such file or directory (2) error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm RESULT=1 // END ERROR I've tried using apt-get to get libdb3 but it says I already have the latest version. Is this some kind of problem with the package trying to use a redhat setup on a debian machine? If you know of a link to a site that already discusses this, I could use it. *note* a lot of my problems (not rpm problems) might be because this is the runtime, and not the common release, however you can only install one version of wxPython and I don't really know how to uninstall it. Will the common release from apt-get work, or will I need to uninstall this completely? If this post belongs better somewhere else, please let me know and I will repost it accordingly. Thank you in advance for any time you take to help me out. P.S. I'm a complete newbie to Linux, so please bare with me. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
