Release wxPython

[edgex004]

That makes sense. I'll try to use it as a run time if I can. I'm having trouble tracking down the necessary libs that I need to pack since ldd doesn't work for dynamic links. Luckily I think I can just grab the library folders that are listed as dependencies in the gPodder readme that I had to install (feedparser, mygpoclient, the dbus stuff) and the rest should be taken care of by the wxPython mount script.

Thank you.

One thing you can do is launch gPodder, then use "lsof" (with grep if needed) to see what libs are loaded. It's manual but quite effective.

Update on the repo.
I downgrade (again) QtWebKit to make Anki works again, and I updated libs. I have updated libcrypto and libssl, so I hope SSL issues are solved now.

Build 12
----------

• Downgrade QtWebKit to make Anki works again
• Updated some libs (ssl related)

Hmm still a few issues in this version. SSL still seems to be not working correctly. 'import ssl' returns no error, but:

-'pip install [insert module]' returns:
ImportError: No module named 'pip._vendor.requests'

-downloading https links in gPodder returns:
Failed: I/O Error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED]

@edgex004 : odd, I'm pretty sure "pip install" works on my side (but I use it also with codeblocks mounted, so that may change a few things).
That SSL : Certificate thingy is strange. I think notaz had done some hack before for codeblocks, maybe it worked only for codeblocks? I don't remeber what was done, there is a thread somewhere to be found with more details about this.

I believe it was something along the lines of updating ca-certificates. However I thought there was an OS update that corrected this. Also, the older versions of wxpython work fine with https currently. I will try looking up the specific fix to see if that works.

 

[edgex004]

Just checked and ca-certificates is installed and up to date. Not sure why I am having so much trouble.

-It seems like wxpython pnd was not being added to PATH in codeblocks, so I've taken modifying the path manually to make codeblocks access wxpython instead of stock python. (However, I just launched codeblocks again and my path seems to be set up correctly now with regards to wxpython, so I'm not sure why it wasn't working before.)

-Using 'pip' from inside codeblocks returns 'ImportError: cannot import name HTTPSHandler'

-'import ssl' from within codeblocks gives 'ImportError: /mnt/utmp/wxpython/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/_ssl.so: undefined symbol SSL_CTX_set_alpn_protos'

-'pip' from within the wxpython PND seems to be working without sudo, but it gets lots of https warnings. I then get permission errors if I try to install modules to site-packages.

-when 'sudo pip' is used to get around permissions errors, I get an error that libffi.so.6 can't be located. For some reason it seems the path/lib path is somehow changing when sudo is invoked.

-'import ssl' and 'import _ssl' from within the wxpython PND do work without error

-with both codeblocks and wxpython mounted, gPodder for https links still gives 'Failed I/O Error: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] (_ssl.c:590): None'

I'm starting to suspect that SSL is giving error when wxpython is mounted by another PND.

EDIT: Also launching gPodder from within the wxpython PND to see if that would change things, but I get the same error. Using the old wxPython seems to be the only way to make it work.

After looking at this I was thinking that gPodder was not updated to handle the more rigorous verification introduced in python 2.7.9, but I can't find any bug reports on it, so I'm thinking it must be something on our side.
