[Solved] CMake fails to find wxWidget in a fresh Ubuntu 14.04 install when trying to build KiCad

 

Finally succesfully build kicad on a all fresh Ubuntu 14.04 yesterday. /apt-get build-dep kicad/ installs wxWidget 2.8 by default (wx3.0 are on other repo). It might be a good idea to advise to install wx3.0.2 before executing /apt-get build-dep kicad /in this page:

Thanks a lot for your help guys :)

Hello guys,

My problem with wxWidget 3.0 and CMake continues, I've tried to make this work for at least 10 hours now, and can't find any solution anywhere. I'm too noob with linux for the moment.

List of what I tried:
    Installing latest wxWidget package (3.0.2)
    Removing wx2.8
    Removing wx3.0.2
    Installing wx3.0.0...

Each of the wx3.0.2 and 3.0.0 install were returning correct version number to the command wx-config --verion-full. I created a link each tim using sudo ln -sv wx-3.0/wx wx ...But still, cmake try to find a 3.0 minimum required version in a wx-2.8 folder which doesn't exist anymore... Here is the terminal output below: I give up for today...
