a compatible wxPython wheel is sometimes available in the Package Index

[VanessaE]

In the case of Debian Bookworm, a compatible wxPython wheel is available in the Package Index, and gets pulled in by requirements.txt. Or at least the build is successful anyway.

HI @VanessaE, I run the latest Debian myself and I'm unable to get a wheel for wxPython through PyPI. What I get:

$ python -m pip install wxPython
Collecting wxPython
  Downloading wxPython-4.2.1.tar.gz (73.7 MB)
[...]
Building wheels for collected packages: wxPython
  Building wheel for wxPython (pyproject.toml) ...

Also I don't see any wheels for Linux on the PyPI downloads page for wxPython. Am I looking at the wrong place maybe?

How did you manage to get a wheel?

I think I'm just using the word "wheel" wrong here. I guess you can close this PR.

Fair enough. Closing then.
