Hi All:

When i install wxPython on cygwin in windows xp, i get this error and can't continue...

my enviroment:

$ cygcheck -c cygwin
Cygwin Package Information
Package              Version        Status
cygwin               1.7.5-1        Incomplete

wxPython-src-2.8.11.0 

Following the build instructions on www.wxpython.org, before the installing of wxPython i have installed additional packages as :
autoconf
automake
gcc-core
gcc-g++
gcc-mingw
gcc-mingw-core
gcc-mingw-g++
make
mingw-runtime
mingw-zlib
patch
w32api    // i can't find this package when i am installing cygwin, so it was not be installed

Then: i put the sourcecode to /usr/sr/wxPython-src-2.8.11.0 

$cd  /usr/sr/wxPython-src-2.8.11.0
$CC="gcc -mno-cygwin -mwindows"  \ 
CXX="g++ -mno-cygwin -mwindows" \
LDFLAGS="-mno-cygwin -mwindows" \
./configure \
    --with-msw \
    --build=i686-pc-mingw32 \
    --prefix=/opt/wx/2.8 \
    --enable-unicode \
    --enable-debug \
    --enable-debug_gdb \
    --enable-geometry \
    --enable-display \
    --enable-shared \
--enable-optimise \
    --with-expat=builtin \
    --with-regex=builtin \
    --with-zlib=builtin

$make $* \ 
    && make -C contrib/src/gizmos $* \
    && make -C contrib/src/stc $*

and then :
./src/msw/utils.cpp: In function ‘const wxChar* wxGetHomeDir(wxString*)’:
./src/msw/utils.cpp:392: error: cannot convert ‘const char*’ to ‘const wxChar
*’ for argument ‘1’ to ‘wxChar* wxGetenv(const wxChar*)’
./src/msw/utils.cpp:408: warning: ‘int cygwin_conv_to_full_win32_path(const cha

./src/msw/utils.cpp:408: error: cannot convert ‘wxString’ to ‘const char*’ f

./include/wx/utils.h:528: error: ambiguates old declaration ‘const wxWCharBuffe
r wxGetUserHome(const wxString&)’
make: *** [basedll_msw_utils.o] Error 1

please help!
