Subject: Make Wx installable via the CPAN shell
While the last bug was a specific case, consider this a more general one. I'm expecting soon to start creating a series of cross-platform desktop applications, and I'd really like to use Wx for this. For the first demonstration and testing sample, see App::GUI::Notepad. Unfortunately, the installation of Wx.pm doesn't "Just Work" like most other Perl modules, even if you install WxWindows itself seperately. It would be really really useful if you could make it so that the installation of Wx.pm was much easier and more approachable to "normal humans". Thanks.

Did you experience this under Windows, Linux or Mac? Mattia
