I've built a Ubuntu 9.04 box and the irony is, when it finally came time to compile, I get the same errors I got on my Mandriva box.

So I'm stuck at the wxWidgets again. I guess I'm not understanding what my wxWidgets issue is. I've downloaded the 2.9 source directly from the website, compiled and installed without any errors. When it comes time to compile bitcoin, it just throws up a ton of wxWidget errors, too long to really paste here.

Has anyone done a successful build of Bitcoin in Linux, if so I'm curious to which Distro you were using?

Have you read the directions in `path-to-bitcoin-folder`/src/build-unix.txt?
It contains information about how to compile wx 2.9 that you need to follow. Apologies if you already know this.

Yeah, I'm following those to the letter, but I think that's my issue is, there might be a step missing because when compiling bitcoin, the errors point towards something else missing in the wx2.9 stuff (maybe an additional step) necessary. I think I'm close to figuring it out, if I do, I'll be sure to post it and hopefully have the text updated for future people to avoid any frustration Grin
