when I try to run pyslsk I have this :

#pyslsk
Can not find wxPython modules. Either wxPython is not
installed, or it's not in Python's module search path (it could be built 
for a different version of python interpreter for example).

this was happened when I installed LMule usig this wohto http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php? ... ight=lmule

any ideas?

Try this:

Code: Select all

python
import wxPython

Do you get a prompt or an error message?

Did you

Code: Select all

# emerge wxPython

?

Hmm you probably did since you already emerged pyslsk... oh well.. somebody must be able to help you :)

I tried to

Code: Select all

import
wxPython

and I get this:

Code: Select all

>>> import wxPython

Try to do this :

Code: Select all

emerge wxGTK
emerge pyslsk

Which version of wxPython are you using?

It seems you may have compiled wxPython with gtk2, but not wxGTK.
The gtk2 version of wxPython isn't as stable as gtk, I'd recommend using -gtk2.

I tried unmerging pyslsk and then emerging it again with -gtk2 and i get this error now...

Code: Select all

Can not find wxPython modules. Either wxPython is not
installed, or it's not in Python's module search path (it could be built 
for a different version of python interpreter for example). The current 
search path is 
['/usr/bin', '/usr/lib/python23.zip', '/usr/lib/python2.3', '/usr/lib/python2.3/plat-linux2', '/usr/lib/python2.3/lib-tk', '/usr/lib/python2.3/lib-dynload', '/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages', '/usr/lib/portage/pym']

but i do have it installed... wxPython-2.4.1.2
it looks like its checking the older python directorys, how do i make pyslsk look for wxPython in the 2.4 directorys?

Edit:
working now

Unmerged wxPython and then emerged it with -gtk2 flag and pyslsk worked

USE="-static" emerge gtk+ && emerge wxGTK wxpython should do it.
Also USE="-gtk2 -unicode" shoudl help, but you will be forced tyo use the old ugly gtk instead of gtk2

Not if you add dev-python/wxpython -gtk2 to your /etc/portage/package.use file
refer to man portage for more information!
