I tried to make a port some time ago but unfortunately wxPython uses 
features not present in wxGTK 2.8.0. As soon as that port is updated 
then it should be straight forward to make a port.

Unfortunately I'm in the middle of a house move so I don't know if that 
has happened yet. When I get DSL sorted and the old house painted 
(strange German rules) then I can look into it again.

Sorry everyone for the prolonged delay in getting the latest wxPython 
ported.
