Hi all, I'm getting the following error when trying to build kicad

/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/wx-3.0-gtk3/wx/_core.py:16629: 
UserWarning: wxPython/wxWidgets release number mismatch
   warnings.warn("wxPython/wxWidgets release number mismatch")
-- Found wxPython 3.0.2.0/gtk3 (wxWidgets 3.0.2.0)

(found suitable version "3.2.1", minimum required is "3.0.2.0")
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:795 (message):
   Cannot find wxPython.h


-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
See also "/tmp/SBo/kicad-5.1.9/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".

a quick find / -iname wxPython.h comes up with
/usr/include/wx-3.0/wx/wxPython/wxPython.h
/usr/include/wx-2.8/wx/wxPython/wxPython.h

any ideas on how to fix.?

I have the latest wxwidgets installed (used by audacity), and also 
wxPython (used by youtube-dl-gui) and wxPython3 (used by kicad)

regards, Tim
