[Bug 379573] Re: sudo update-alternatives does not configure the default python-wxgtk in Jaunty

[Graham Lamont]

Sorry to barge into the middle of this fix. But does anyone know whether
this bug is related to this:

In jaunty, having 
1 installed wxgtk2.6
2 installed wxgtk2.8
3 completely uninstalled both
4 installed wxgtk2.8

*Still* get:
   File "Grid.py", line 2, in <module>
    import  wx
ImportError: No module named wx

with 
sys.path=['', '/usr/lib/python2.6', '/usr/lib/python2.6/plat-linux2', '/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-tk', '/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-old', '/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-dynload', '/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages', '/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/PIL', '/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/gst-0.10', '/var/lib/python-support/python2.6', '/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/gtk-2.0', '/var/lib/python-support/python2.6/gtk-2.0', '/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages']

ie. no sign of /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/wx-2.8-gtk2-unicode.

When I insert:
import sys
sys.path=['', '/usr/lib/python2.6', '/usr/lib/python2.6/plat-linux2', '/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-tk', '/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-old', '/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-dynload', '/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages', '/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/PIL', '/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/gst-0.10', '/var/lib/python-support/python2.6', '/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/wx-2.8-gtk2-unicode', '/var/lib/python-support/python2.6/gtk-2.0', '/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages']

at start of Grid.py (demo) appears to work.

But unfortunately I'm so thick I wouldn't know what to do other than
prepend this to all files!

Is this thread likely to ultimately provide a solution to my n00b woes ?
Thanks.
