I do NOT have `wxpython` or `wxmac` installed via brew. I do have official wxPython packages installed via the installer for Python 2.5, 2.6 and 2.7. I also have wxPhoenix (wxPython 4.0) wheel installed for Python 3.6 via pip.

I can not close `pcbnew` or open the python scripting console.

If if I rename `/usr/local/bin` and `/usr/local/lib`, then things start to work. i.e. I can close the `pcbnew` window and the python scripting console appears.

    sudo mv /usr/local/bin /usr/local/bin.ORIG
    sudo mv /usr/local/lib /usr/local/lib.ORIG

Interestingly, v4.0.7 python console has some issues with some keys. e.g. I can't press the `o` or `x` keys as they are interpreted as accelerators and the menu flashes. This does not happen in recent snapshots.
