Hi Dick,

It's great to see you have time for this kind of 'customer' support ;)

Regarding prerequisites and before asking here I ended up with the same
conclusion as you, wx2.8-headers that is. It still didn't work.

Anyway, the problem moved on while writing this. It was a classical
PEBKAC again. I had some wx2.9.zzz built for testing the printing fixes
and KiCad build was linking against it, but that build didn't have
Python support. Cmake was happy with header package from 2.8 and the
rest from 2.9.zzz it seems.

wx2.8-headers  2.8.12.1-14ubuntu1.1  amd64

Now the build log shows:

CMakeFiles/pcbnew.dir/pcbframe.cpp.o:
”PCB_EDIT_FRAME::PCB_EDIT_FRAME(wxWindow*, wxString const&, wxPoint
const&, wxSize const&, long)”:
pcbframe.cpp:(.text+0x2bcd): undefined reference to
”CreatePythonShellWindow(wxWindow*)”
