About wxWidgets in Public Distributions

Debian | SuSE | PLD | Gentoo | Dev-C++

Debian

The wxWidgets Debian package is maintained by Ron Lee: see debian\README.Debian in CVS.

The following packages are built from the wxWidgets CVS source.

libwxbase               wxBase runtime shared libraries
libwxbase-dev           extra files and static libs for building wxBase apps
libwxbase-dbg           wxBase libraries built with -g and __WXDEBUG__


libwxgtk                wxGTK runtime shared libraries
libwxgtk-dev            extra files and static libs for building wxGTK apps
libwxgtk-dbg            wxGTK libraries built with -g and __WXDEBUG__


libwxgtk-python         Python binding to wxGTK
libwxgtk-python-contrib Python binding to the contrib libs


wxwin-contrib           wxWin contrib runtime shared libs (built with wxGTK)
wxwin-contrib-dev       extra files and static contrib libs for building apps


wxwin-headers           common header files for building wxWidgets apps
wxwin-doc               HTML version of the wxWidgets manual
wxwin-examples          wxWidgets and wxPython demos and samples (source)
wxwin-i18n              message catalogs for native language support


SuSE

I think wxWidgets is on SuSE Linux 7.0 because they sent me a free copy: to be confirmed.

PLD

wxWidgets for GTK+ and Motif, and wxPython, are included in the Polish PLD distribution.

Gentoo

Robin Dunn spotted that the Gentoo distribution contains 2.3.2 versions of wxGTK and wxPython Boa-Constructor packages.

Dev-C++

The free Dev-C++ IDE for Windows has a wxWidgets 2.2.9 package. To get the wxWidgets package, load Dev-C++, go to "Tools->Check for updates/packages" and (when the vUpdate window comes up) click Start. You may have to update the updater first, if so you will have to do it again. It will give you a list of packages and updates to choose from, including a wxWidgets package.

There are also instructions on using wxWidgets with Dev-C++ here.
