A Problem with "wxPython".
 

Hi Everybody,

I have installed wxPython on my Ubuntu 9.10. But when I type
"import wxPython" in "python environment it returns the following
error.

Does it need a PATH to be added in ".bashrc"? If so what should I write as a PATH for it?

I would be very grateful for any help.

With best regards,
Hassan

Do the following:

I have versoin .4 and my import wx and wxPython works fine. So, you will have to either create the link libtiff.so.3 pointing to that or find out why your install is a bit "old". It works fine on mine and I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 on this machine.
