Same here on 8.10 beta. To make wammu work just have to install package python-wxgtk2.8 (with all dependences). Wammu package have currently following dependences: python-wxgtk2.6 | python-wxgtk2.8 therefore it automatically installs python-wxgtk2.6 (which apparently doesn't work properly).

I can confirm this on 8.10

running it from command line gives:
 wammu
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/wammu", line 31, in <module>
    import Wammu.Locales
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/Wammu/Locales.py", line 31, in <module>
    import wx
ImportError: No module named wx

so there seems to be a problem with dependencies?

jens@morpheus:~$ sudo aptitude install wammu

  python-bluez{a} python-gammu{a} python-wxgtk2.6{a} python-wxversion{a}
  timidity{a} wammu

aptitude installed libwxgtk.6.0 and python-wxgtk2.6 while wammu is using python 2.5?

[Jens (jens.timmerman)]

ok, thx jakob, installing python-wxgtk2.8 makes gammu work

[gda (geert-datema)]

Wammu is up and running......thanks

This should have been fixed by wxwidgets2.6 2.6.3.2.2-2ubuntu5. Can you reopen if it wasn't ?

[Mathieu Marquer (slasher-fun)]

Reopening.

On ubuntu jaunty up-to-date as of 24 feb., after installing wammu and gammu, launching wammu says :

$ wammu
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/wammu", line 31, in <module>
    import Wammu.Locales
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/Wammu/Locales.py", line 31, in <module>
    import wx
ImportError: No module named wx
Error in sys.excepthook:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/apport_python_hook.py", line 85, in apport_excepthook
    os.O_WRONLY|os.O_CREAT|os.O_EXCL), 'w')
OSError: [Errno 17] File exists: '/var/crash/_usr_bin_wammu.1000.crash'

Original exception was:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/wammu", line 31, in <module>
    import Wammu.Locales
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/Wammu/Locales.py", line 31, in <module>
    import wx
ImportError: No module named wx

After installing python-wxgtk2.6, it works fine (python-wxgtk2.8 was already installed)

@Mathieu Marquer

I tried both with:
- python-wxgtk2.6 only installed
- python-wxgtk2.8 only installed
... and both work fine.

Feel free to reopen this bug in case you still encounter the error. Matthieu you can for example remove python-wxgtk2.6 by:

$ sudo dpkg -r --force-depends python-wxgtk2.6

check wammu

and install back

$ sudo apt-get install python-wxgtk2.6

[Mathieu Marquer (slasher-fun)]

Works fine for now with py-wx2.8 and 2.6, so not reopening this time :-)
