Codelite, wxWidgets, and wxGTK3
by selfprogrammed from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6CTF7)
The codelite slackbuild conflicts with slackbuild packages that use wxWidgets.
The current codelite requires wxGTK3.
wxGTK3 generates an instance of wxWidgets 3.0.
This sets the soft-links.
/usr/bin/wx-config
/usr/bin/wxrc
wxWidgets generates a GTK instance (by default) of wxWidgets 3.2.
This sets the same soft-links as wxGTK3.
If wxGTK3 is installed after wxWidgets, then compiles of packages, like audacity, will fail.
If wxGTK3 is removed, then compiles of packages like codelite, will fail.
It detects and tries to use the wxWidgets GTK libraries, but they are incompatible.
I have created a patch to codelite that allows it to compile using wxWidgets 3.2.
