I tried :

$ otool -L
/Users/me/Desktop/Python-Mac-Root/lib/python2.5/site-packages/wx-2.8-mac-unicode/wx/_core_.so

and I get :

/Users/me/Desktop/Python-Mac-Root/lib/python2.5/site-packages/wx-2.8-mac-unicode/wx/_core_.so:
	/usr/lib/libstdc++.6.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0, current version
7.4.0)
	/usr/lib/libwx_macud-2.8.0.dylib (compatibility version 2.6.0, current
version 2.8.4)
	/System/Library/Frameworks/QuickTime.framework/Versions/A/QuickTime
(compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1327.73.0)
	/System/Library/Frameworks/IOKit.framework/Versions/A/IOKit
(compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 275.0.0)
	/System/Library/Frameworks/Carbon.framework/Versions/A/Carbon
(compatibility version 2.0.0, current version 136.0.0)
	/System/Library/Frameworks/Cocoa.framework/Versions/A/Cocoa
(compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 12.0.0)
	/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version
111.1.4)
	/usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version
1.0.0)
	/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Versions/A/ApplicationServices
(compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 34.0.0)

it appears linked with the wrong version of
/usr/lib/libwx_macud-2.8.0.dylib, is that correct? If so, how can I fix
it?

Thanks
