#1241577 — Bug#1102687: chirp: ImportError on launch related to wx package

Package: chirp
Version: 1:20250221-1
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: mcornick@mcornick.com

Dear Maintainer,

On trixie, the current version of chirpw crashes on launch with an
ImportError that appears related to wxWidgets:

mcornick@x230:~$ chirpw
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/chirpw", line 33, in <module>
    sys.exit(load_entry_point('chirp==20250221', 'console_scripts', 'chirpw')())

This renders chirpw unusable. Thanks for looking into this.

#1241688

Control: reassign -1 python3-wxgtk4.0 4.2.2+dfsg-3+b1

This bug is not in chirp, in fact it is enough to import wx:

$ python -c "import wx"
Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
   import wx
 File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/wx/__init__.py", line 17, in <module>
   from wx.core import *
 File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/wx/core.py", line 12, in <module>
   from ._core import *
ImportError: /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/wx/_core.cpython-313-x86_64-linux-gnu.so:

#1242002 — Bug#1102687: wxWidgets ABI change

This issue seems to be due to an unfortunate unplanned ABI change in 
wxWidgets, see: https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/issues/25327

The issue will go away once wxpython4.0 4.2.3+dfsg-2 migrates to testing.

Will probably need to check if any other packages are broken by this 
change :(

Also quisk, using Python port of wsWidget, is broken by this change

When this package will be available in trixie repository?
Alternatively, can package from unstable be installed in trixie?

It will be in 5 days.  You can monitor progress here if you desire:
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/wxpython4.0

Yes, you should be able to install the version from unstable.

Scott
