  Could not find any downloads that satisfy the requirement wxPython
  Some externally hosted files were ignored (use --allow-external wxPython to allow).

Few minutes ago trying install via brew:

brew install wxPython

But installed not in virtualenv, installed in the main user directory. How can I fix this? Cause wxPyWiki doesn't working right now, and i can't look at docs, how to use virtualenv and wxPython.

Answer 1

Just use this:

1) Install via brew:

   brew install python --framework
   brew install wxPython

2) Make virtualenv when you want

3) Go to your site-packages directory in your virtualenv and add symbol links:

cd <there your path to lib/python2.7/site-packages/ in virtualenv>
ln -s /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/wx* .
