I have an Intel Mac running only MacPorts and with no previous  
installs of wxWidgets or wxpython, and both installed for me without  
any trouble at all, so unless you clean out all the other things and  
still get the problem on a clean install, I'd be inclined to put it  
down to an interaction (though I can't be certain of that).  I don't  
think any port system supports running in parallel with another, and  
it certainly makes it much harder for us to figure out what was  
causing it.  If the reason that you were using fink was that there  
were fink packages that MacPorts didn't have, then I think it would  
be far better to ask for those ones to be added to MacPorts (or vice  
versa if you decide you want to use fink over MacPorts).

Kind regards,


Maun Suang
