Bug #102135 for Wx: Wx does not build on Ubuntu 14.04: target 'PropertyGrid.o' failed (was ticket 121930)

Hi, Ticket 121930 is marked as "resolved". However, I still receive the same error as described in https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=121930#txn-1293557 when using perl 5.20.1 and 5.20.2. Attached you'll find the output of the perl Makefile.PL and make command. What may be relevant is that Alien::wxWidgets had to be patched lightly to make it build on Ubuntu 14.10 (in short add support for wx 3.0.1). However, I don't think the error lays there. This are the commands used (from a HOWTO I am working on to build Padre for developers): Get the OS dependencies $ sudo apt-get install libgtk-3-dev libwxgtk3.0-dev Install CPAN modules needed for development $ cpanm Module::Install Locale::Msgfmt Install "tricky" modules: Alien::wxWidgets and Wx Alien::wxWidgets does not build with wxWidgets 3.0.0. We need version 3.0.1, so we need to patch Alien::wxWidgets. $ cpanm Module::Pluggable # needed for module test $ mkdir -p ~/tmp/ && cd ~/tmp && cpan -g Alien::wxWidgets && tar xvzf Alien-wxWidgets-*.tar.gz && cd Alien-wxWidgets-* $ cp patches/data-3.0.0 patches/data-3.0.1 $ perl -pi -e 's/3\.0\.0/3.0.1/g' Build.PL patches/data-3.0.1 $ export CXXFLAGS="-std=gnu++11" (Accept all the defaults) $ perl Build.PL $ perl Build $ perl Build test $ perl Build install # Build Wx.pm (does not work yet) $ cpanm ExtUtils::XSpp $ cd ~/tmp $ /usr/bin/cpan -g Wx $ tar xvzf Wx-*.tar.gz && cd Wx* $ perl Makefile.PL --extra-cflags='-std=gnu++11' $ make Thank you. Please feel free to contact me for what ever info you need of if test must be run. I have been looking for some days at the problem but I haven't been able to make it work yet. Claudio
