Thanks.  I'm trying a build with python3-wxpython4 and I'll report my findings.  It has made it to the packaging step, so it might succeed.

Indeed - that is why I started trying to build it.  It might be unsuitable for F29 - might be too radical, but it would certainly be suitable for rawhide, and of course for the nightlies.

I'm not sure about F30 - that might branch off from rawhide too soon to sneak it in, but we'll see.
