Comment 17 for bug 1089027

It is also not clear that there is a version of wxWidgets 3.0 for Ubuntu
12.04.

From the wxWidgets site

(http://wiki.wxwidgets.org/Installing_and_configuring_under_Ubuntu)

Note that as of August 2012 there are no packages for Ubuntu 11.10
(Oneiric) or 12.04 (Precise)

> Printing on wxWidgets works only since wxWidgets 3.0.
> This is a wxWidgets bug, not a Kicad bug
> Use wxWidgets 3.0 and the current stable sources from bzr to build a
> working Kicad version.

> Hi,
