+On OS X, you cannot use the 'perl' executable, you have to use the 'wxPerl' executable (see this [http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.wxperl.users/2008/07/msg5978.html thread regarding wxPerl invocation]).

+'' *TODO: much more detail required - what does this mean for running 'cpan .' to auto install dependencies?*''
 
 OS X 10.4 has wxPerl 0.22, 10.5 has a more recent version (0.6x for some x)
 
-see this thread [http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.wxperl.users/2008/07/msg5978.html]
+Aside from building from source, you can also install newer versions of Wx on OS X using a package manager:

+{{{
+fink install wxmac28
+}}}

+{{{
+port install wxWidgets
