6 | libwxbase wxBase runtime shared libraries |
| 7 | libwxbase-dev extra files and static libs for building wxBase apps | |

| 6de5430b | 15 | python-wxgtk Python binding to wxGTK (from 2.2.3 onward, this |
| 050207ec | 16 | obsoletes the libwxgtk-python-contrib package as |
| b8723d93 | 17 | all python modules are built into a single monolith) |
| 6de5430b RD |
18 | python-wxversion The wxversion.py version selector, new to wxPython2.6 |
| 19 | python-wxtools The ancillary tools from the wxPython distribution. | |
| 050207ec | 20 | |
| 6de5430b | 21 | wx-common common helper files and support applications. |
| e1293dcf RL |
22 | wx-headers common header files for building wxWidgets apps |
| 23 | wx-doc HTML version of the wxWidgets manual | |
| 24 | wx-examples wxWidgets and wxPython demos and samples (source) | |

28 | Note that static libraries are no longer supplied in these |
| 29 | packages. Please read, or have understood: | |
| 30 | http://people.redhat.com/drepper/no_static_linking.html | |
| 31 | among others before reporting this as a bug. | |

| e1293dcf | 33 | The following binaries can be built from the source package |
| 6de5430b RD |
34 | with the mingw32 cross compiler, but are not distributed |
| 35 | as a part of the main Debian distribution. | |

37 | Please do *not* file bug reports for these packages to the |
| 38 | Debian bts. But do feel free to email me personally if you | |
| 39 | find problems and/or have patches to fix them. | |
| 4fb788e4 RL |
40 | |
| 41 | libwxmsw-dev mingw32-cross wxMSW libs. | |
| 42 | libwxmsw-dbg mingw32-cross wxMSW (debug) libs. | |
| e1293dcf | 43 | wx-headers-msw extra headers needed for wxMSW. |

45 | You can build these extra packages using the binary-cross target |
| 46 | in debian/rules. | |
| 47 | ||
| 48 | ||
| 6de5430b | 49 | It is also possible to build a python-wxgtk-dbg package. |
| 6181913e RL |
50 | There are some limitations (like this package cannot be installed |
| 51 | concurrently with the release version), but some developers may | |
| 52 | find such a thing useful in any case. It will transparently | |
| 53 | replace the release package for installed apps that depend on the | |
| 54 | release package, but should NEVER be used when preparing packages | |
| 55 | for upload. This package may be created from the source using the | |
| 56 | binary-dbg-py target in debian/rules. (note that doing this will | |
| 57 | also destroy any release build that exists in the same tree, they | |
| 58 | cannot coexist there either yet) | |
| 59 | ||
| 60 | ||
| 61 | Finally, because all of these packages can take quite some time to | |
| 62 | build, the source package supports the use of distcc. The package | |
| 63 | builds will automatically parallelise to suit the number of hosts | |
| 64 | you have listed in DISTCC_HOSTS. This will work for both native | |
| 65 | and cross builds of the c++ libraries, if you have the relevant | |
| 6de5430b RD |
66 | compilers on all your build hosts. |
| 67 | You may override that heuristic by setting the CONCURRENCY_LEVEL | |
| 68 | environment variable to the number of jobs you wish make to fork. | |
| 69 | That variable is also supported by the kernel-package scripts and | |
| 70 | is respected for consistency here. | |
| 71 | ||
| 72 | wxPython builds cannot be parallelised at this stage and will run | |
| 73 | serially regardless of your configuration. | |
