  Hi
  
  I am trying to build Golly from source on Gentoo Linux. I installed wxWidegts (for GTK+) without any
  obvious problems, but there is a build error in Golly.
  
  Specifically:
  
  make -f makefile-x11
  
  works for a while, then I see:
  
  g++ `wx-config --cxxflags` -O5 -Wall -DZLIB -DVERSION=0.95 -c -o ObjX11/wxprefs.o wxprefs.cpp
  wxprefs.cpp: In member function `bool PrefsDialog::BadSpinVal(int, int, int, const char*)':
  wxprefs.cpp:1377: error: 'class wxSpinCtrl' has no member named 'GetTextValue'
  make: *** [ObjX11/wxprefs.o] Error 1
  
  I am running Gentoo Linux with GTK+ 2.8.12,
  wxWidgets (wxGTK-2.6.3) and gcc 3.4.5.
  
  I'll try the binary now.
  
  Thanks,
  
  John Green
