LinuxQuestions.org - wxPython 2.6.0.1 massive errors

I'm trying to install pysoulseek and thus need to install wxPython. I first untar/uncompress the source, configure config.py, then use "python setup.py build" (which is essentially what their wiki says to do).. with this, I get a bunch of errors, much of which the terminal cuts off. Here's some of it.
