wxPython install problems on linux

[hejduk]

Hi, I'm having a problem installing wxPython on linux (Slak 8). I have
all the necesarry prerequisites (wxGTK, python etc). When I run the
setup.py build script half way through i get the following error
messages:

running build_ext
building 'wxc' extension
...

src/helpers.cpp:27: gdk/gdkprivate.h: No such file or directory

error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1


Not surprisingly when I try to run any of the demo programs I get an
error message about no wxc module. I know this is kind of specific and
obscure but if anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
