Dependancies problem?

[GW3TMH]

I am not sure if this is a bug or not, I am using Linux Mint 18, 64 bit XFCE with Python 2.7.12. You're about box on Debreate says I have Python 2.7.12 and wxPython 3.0.2 on the Sytem information tab.

As a minimal example if I put my dependency to "python=2.7.12" and try a test install it tells me my dependency has not been met, it works on the >= 2.7 though

I cannot get it to recognize any version of wxPython even if I say any wxPython > 2.6 it just says dependency not met. I can send screen shots.

The wxPython package is not labelled "wxPython" in Debian/Ubuntu/Mint. It is python-wxgtk2.8, python-wxgtk3.0, or python-wxgtk4.0. Not sure why the python dependency isn't working. Perhaps try "python2.7=2.7.12".

Edit: This might be the problem with the Python package if your distribution is based on Ubuntu Xenial:

Currently, as of writing this, the python package is version 2.7.11, whereas the python2.7 package is version 2.7.12 (why they are not the same, I don't know since the python package is simply a meta package that depends on python2.7). That would cause a dependency error if your dependency is listed as "python=2.7.12". But, it should also cause an error if it is "python>=2.7.12". So again, not 100% sure why you might be getting the error in one case, but not in the other.

I will be closing this soon as I have not received any more responses.
