 Maybe I don't understand what wxgtk is: is it not wxwidgets using the gtk
 toolkit?  Or is it a subset of wxwidgets?  If the former, then wxgtk can
 be replaced by wxwidgets +gtk (see the patch I attached to this ticket),
 and xchm can depend on that.

 BTW, wxwidgets-python does not provide wxpython!  It is wxwidgets but at
 the version number needed by wxpython.
