I'm confused.  How else should this work?  If configure your kicad build
to include wxPython, then one would expect the configuration to fail if
wxPython is not installed or the correct version.  Irregardless of where
wxPython is installed on your system, python still needs to know where
it is installed before you can use it either by installing wxPython into
your python library path, adding the path programmatically during python
scripting initialization, or using PTYHONPATH.

I’d need to set the python path to point to my built wxPython.  When all is compiled and installed, everything works because the libraries are moved into the right places.

I don’t have wxPython installed as part of my system install so importing wxversion is always going to fail unless I point it to my wxPython that I build as part of my kicad builds.  Anyone else experiencing this?
