For reasons disclosed here, pypi has no wheels available for wxPython on Linux. This causes Linux builds to take up to 25 minutes (against the ~2 minutes on Windows/MacOS) which is a bit annoying.
We circumvent this by manually specifying a prebuilt wxPython=4.2.1 wheel for Ubuntu 22.04 and installing it in the poetry venv before we call
poetry install. Bit finicky but this will be fine for as long as we use Ubuntu 22.04 runners for CI and wxPython 4.2.1.
