Bug Description

Ubuntu 10.10 RC
libwxgtk2.8-0 2.8.11.0-0ubuntu4, python-wxgtk2.8-0 2.8.11.0-0ubuntu4

I use a python program that makes use of the MediaCtrl class. Since upgrading to Ubuntu 10.10 RC, the program fails to start and throws the following error instead:

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

According to http://programming.itags.org/python/49919/ this may mean that wxwidgets is compiled without gstreamer and/or gconf support.

If I roll back libwxgtk2.8 and python-wxgtk2.8 to the Lucid versions, the problem does not occur.

Is there any progress about this issue?
wx.Sound and wx.media.MediaCtrl() don't work for a long time. I have tested wxPython 2.8.11 package on Pardus 2011 witout any problem. I don't know that cflags.patch may help you under files folder.

I hope it will be fixed soon. This is annoying blocking bug for me. I'm waiting...
Good works
