Обсуждение: problem compiling, error while checking for wx

hi!

after a fresh cvs checkout just now, i get the following error while
running configure:

<snip>
checking for wxWidgets... yes

   Warning: No config found to match: /usr/local/bin/wx-config
--static=no --libs --unicode=yes --debug=yes --version=2.6
            in /usr/local/lib/wx/config
   If you require this configuration, please install the desired
   library build.  If this is part of an automated configuration
   test and no other errors occur, you may safely ignore it.
   You may use wx-config --list to see all configs available in
   the default prefix.

configure: error: Your wxWidgets installation cannot support pgAdmin in
the selected configuration. This may be because it was configured
without the --enable-unicode option, or the combination of
dynamic/static linking and debug/non-debug libraries selected did not
match any installed wxWidgets libraries.
make: *** [config.status] Error 1
</snip>

the pgadmin configure command was
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/pgadmin-svn

the wx configure command was
./configure --with-gtk --enable-gtk2  --enable-unicode --disable-shared
--enable-debug --enable-mimetype=yes

i've successfully used the above pgadmin configure command until a few
days ago. configure goes through and pgadmin compiles ok with the
following parameters:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/pgadmin-svn --enable-debug --enable-static

is it necessary to explicitly add these two parameters now?

thanks,
Miha

Yes - previously it was pretty undertermined - in fact you pretty much
always got a debug build (this was more apparent on Mac where the
resulting executable was around 128MB!).

It will default now to dynamic linking, non-debug, and if you don't have
an appropriately configured wx installation to match you'll get the
errors you see. So, you can either:

- Pass the configure options to pgAdmin to tell it to build correctly
with your wx installation
- Rebuild wx with the right configuration to match pgAdmin. This is
perhaps the better option because you can build all 4 possible
combinations and install them over the top of each other. Don't forget
the 'make clean' before each build though, otherwise bad things will
happen.
