I've successfully downloaded and run your prebuilt version of Padre on
Fedora 9. I get an error on startup but it seems to work fine. I haven't
actually tried to do much with it.

The problem doesn't seem to be Wx. There's already a prebuild perl-Wx in
the Fedora repositories.

There are a few of your other pre-reqs missing from the Fedora
repositories, but the only one I'm having any trouble building is
Wx::Perl::ProcessStream. That seems to fail some (most?) of its tests on
my machine.

I'll carry on trying and let you know how it goes.

Maybe. We'll see :-)
