installing Leginon on SuSE
Added by Anchi Cheng almost 15 years ago
This is from Harry at Columbia U.
I am starting to install Leginon on a workstation. I am stuck at
installing wxPython on OpenSuse 11.2 for days.After compiling and installing wxPython without error messages, I tried
to import the wx module in Python, but got the following message
wx-2.8-gtk2-unicode/wx/_core_.so: undefined symbol:
_ZNK14wxImageHandler12GetClassInfoEvGoogle search indicates that this might be an Unicode issue (ucs4 s
ucs2). Do you know if anyone else has encountered this problem or if
there is a fix for it?Or, if I have wxGTK installed, do I still need wxPython?

According to the last user who install Leginon on SuSE, the wxPython rpm package is called python-wxGTK on SuSE. He provided the equivalent names to us to put on the documentation website. We don't use SuSE ourselves. But we had other institutes use SuSE. We just install successfully on an older machine that used SuSE 10.3.
In general, if possible, use rpm and installers such as zypper (for SuSE) give better results than compile from source.
Did you run syscheck before installing wxpython yourself? It should have told you if you need installation.

From Harry:
I recompiled wxPython, and this time it worked.
