Comment 4 for bug 211553

I had a similar problem in the Release Version of Hardy. But the file wx.pth was actually present in the python2.5/site-packages directory (and pointing to the correct location) but it was impossible to import wx. I imported wxversion and typed wxversion.select('2.8'), and then everything worked fine, and still after log out/re-log in. Looks weird to me because nothing in wxversion seems to write anything in wx.pth or any other file...

However, I also forced the re-installation of the python-wx* packages. It seemed to have no effect but I may be wrong. Unfortunately I can't reproduce these different situation to check my impression.

Then, it seems to me that the wxversion.select() call solved my problem, eventhough I've no idea how is that possible... but, unfortunately, it cannot totally be ruled out that the re-installation of the python-wx* packages solved the problem.

Sorry for such a fuzzy report...
