Hi Vesa,

See here:

  http://packages.ubuntu.com/saucy/libwxgtk2.8-dev

This package above, which is an existing prerequisite, gets installed, and depends on
wx2.8-headers which should therefore get installed, and it includes wxPython.h.  So it
should be fine.  See if package wx2.8-headers is installed please.


$ dpkg -l | grep wx2.8-headers
ii wx2.8-headers 2.8.12.1-6ubuntu2 wxWidgets Cross-platform C++ GUI toolkit (header files)
