--enable-unicode = u
--with-gtk2 = gtk2
--enable-debug = d
--with-wx25=2.5

wx{gtk2 }{u}{d}{-2.5}-config
Anyway, your solution also works, so let's go for it.

I have a Mandrake 9.1 host home ready for testing. If you wish, just send me
your public SS key so I can give you root access. Dave already sent me his
key, but you are the ***master*** of autoconf...

Thanks. The SuSE 8.2 host is in Germany. I will be testing your script...

Agreed. I may take a day or so to compile wxWindows... The Mandrake 8.2 host
needs four hours to compile wxWindows... But for daily snapshots, the donated
Mac is perfect. If you were living in Europe, I would send you the Mac...

Thanks again for your help. If we are able to release Mandrake 9.1 and SuSE
8.2 snapshots, we would certainly reach many new users.
