Cannot build wxPython 4.2.3 against wxWidgets 3.3 #2764
Description
Operating system: Linux
wxPython version & source: wxPython 4.2.3, self-built for KiCad flatpak
Python version & source: Python 3.12.10, from org.freedesktop.Sdk//24.08
Description of the problem:
We are building wxPython for the KiCad flatpak on flathub 1 using
pip3 install --verbose --exists-action=i --no-index --find-links="file://${PWD}" --prefix=${FLATPAK_DEST} wxPython --no-build-isolationwith WXPYTHON_BUILD_ARGS="--use_syswx --nodoc" 2
Trying to build against the newly released wxWidgets 3.3, we are seing build errors during SIP build step:
