Problems with dependencies

See original GitHub issue

Hi again,

I try to install Gooey, but have problems with some dependencies. With pip I actually manage to install the package, but when I launch a script it complains about wxPython. After finally finding a solution on the official web page (sudo pip install --upgrade --trusted-host wxpython.org --pre -f http://wxpython.org/Phoenix/snapshot-builds/ wxPython_Phoenix), it then complains about a package called animate.

Is there an easier way to install it? Maybe a requirement file?

Answering my own question here for the benefit of others. When using wxpython in a virtualenv, these instructions worked to get wxpython and wx working: http://www.thebrokendesk.com/post/using-wx-python-in-a-virtual-environment/

The only change I made was to use PYTHON=/usr/local/bin/python2.7 in the bash script suggested rather than ipython.

I had issues with wxPython due to having Anaconda installed. It’s working now and I am posting here to hopefully save others time.

Issue I had: import wx ImportError: No module named wx

Solution: Go to your Anaconda2/Lib/site-packages and copy the ‘wx-<version>-msw’ folder. Go to Python27/Lib/site-packages and paste the ‘wx-<version>-msw’ folder there. Open the ‘wx-<version>-msw’ folder and move the ‘wx’ folder out into Python27/Lib/site-packages.
