If there's already a version of [[wxWidgets]] installed, but you want aMule to use another (probably newer one), here are the steps to follow:

First, create the target directory, where wxWidgets and aMule will reside (they don't need to be in the same dir, but it makes life easier). Then configure wxWidgets and aMule accordingly (assuming wxWidgets 2.5.2 and current (=>20040801) aMule CVS).

in wxWidgets source dir:
''<pre>
mkdir /home/muli/BUILD
./configure --prefix=/home/muli/BUILD --enable-unicode --enable-gtk2
make && make install
</pre>''

In aMule source dir:
''<pre>
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/muli/BUILD/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
./configure --prefix=/home/muli/BUILD --enable-debug --with-wx-prefix=/home/muli/BUILD --with-wx-config=/home/muli/BUILD/bin/wxgtk2u-2.5-config
make && make install
</pre>''

To start aMule, you need to explicitely specifiy the LD path each time you run it:

''<pre>
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/muli/BUILD/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
gdb /home/muli/BUILD/bin/amule
gdb>handle SIGPIPE nostop noprint pass
gdb>run
</pre>''
