wxMediaCtrl worked on Lucid, not implemented on Maverick (regression)

[Roger Binns]

In some of my code I had the following:

   wx.media.MediaCtrl(panel)

On Lucid it worked perfectly. On Maverick it reports "Not Implemented". This is a regression. Traceback showing this:

  File "mc.py", line 9, in OnInit
    m=wx.media.MediaCtrl(frame)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/wx-2.8-gtk2-unicode/wx/media.py", line 96, in __init__
    _media.MediaCtrl_swiginit(self,_media.new_MediaCtrl(*args, **kwargs))
NotImplementedError

Example code to reproduce:

#!/usr/bin/env python

import wx
import wx.media

class MyApp(wx.App):
    def OnInit(self):
        frame = wx.Frame(None, -1, "Hello from wxPython")
        m=wx.media.MediaCtrl(frame)
        frame.Show(true)

app = MyApp()
app.MainLoop()

I have the same problema to make my project and some wxwidgets samples. Please rebuild the wxWidgets packages with wxmediactlr support.
