Like Bernhard, I use wxWidgets 3.0.2 compiled for the machine (I have both 10.10 and 10.9 machines). I don’t use homebrew or any other package manager; the various dependencies are compiled from the latest source at the time I grabbed them. Latest Xcode on both. Seems to be OK.

Having said that, I have never gotten wxPython to finish building. It always fails with the following:

running install_egg_info
