[Usbpicprog-technical] Can I build the cmdline tool without wxwidgets?

[Phil E. <spa...@ch...>]

Dear Experts,

I recently received my usbpicprog device and would like to use it with 
my Debian system.  After various snags I've now discovered that I need 
wxWidgets version 2.9.0 or later.  As far as I can tell, 2.9 is not 
available on any Debian version, and even if they get around to 
packaging it soon that won't help me on my "stable" system.

I don't need the wxWidgets GUI.  I'm a cmdline sort of person.  I like 
Makefiles and scripts, not GUIs.  All that I want from this thing is a 
simple command-line tool that will talk to the hardware to program a 
chip.  It seems that such a command-line tool is included, but I don't 
immediately see a way to compile it separately from all the wx stuff.  
I was hoping for e.g. "./configure --without-wxwidgets".  Is there such 
a thing?  Is it just a case of extracting a few source files and 
compiling them separately?

Thanks for any suggestions.


Regards,  Phil.
