SPE python editor PKGBUILD please

I just tried to build and use SPE python editor but when i try to run it i get this error:

SPE v0.8.1.d (c)2003-2005 www.stani.be

If spe fails to start:
 - type "python SPE.py --debug > debug.txt 2>&1" at the command prompt
   (or if you use tcsh: "python SPE.py --debug >& debug.txt")
 - send debug.txt with some info to spe.stani.be[at]gmail.com

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/spe", line 3, in ?
    import _spe.SPE
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/_spe/SPE.py", line 32, in ?
    import Menu,Parent,Child
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/_spe/Menu.py", line 720, in ?
    from wx.animate import GIFAnimationCtrl
ImportError: No module named animate
[napoleon@archlinux ~]$

I think wx.animate has been disabled in wxgtk. How do i fix this?

Can someone make a PKGBUILD that will overcome this problem please.

Thnx

Re: SPE python editor PKGBUILD please

Napoleon,

I have not updated SPE in the AUR because of this problem. 

wxpython and wxgtk both have animate disabled, and I have not been able to get wxgtk to compile with it enabled.  wxgtk is rather messy in it's current state.  I am going to play around with it to see if I can convince it to build just the gtk2 stuff cleanly (since I don't need the gtk1 stuff - I think).

Let me know if you make any progress on this.
