Hello,

I worked on your wxpython patch, and got wxpython to build, with kicad on top
of it. Quite a lot of problems exist in the packages as of now.

Regarding kicad, the built binary has the following issues:
-In eeschema, the screen does not get redrawn automatically, leaving
mouse traces. I found somewhere some suggestions, that building
wxwidgets3.0 with gtk2 solves the issue, but I tried that and it does
not.
-When pcbnew is fired up, there is a "pcbnewInitPythonScripting() failed."
message. Trying again, it opens normally (and effectively shows
drawn pcb layouts), but with ui resizing issues. The ui resizing issues
exist everywhere.
-I have not added the kicad-libraries(components and footprints) in the package 
yet.

On the build side of things, first of all, the update to boost 1.61.0
breaks the build of kicad, with a header missing error. I have reverted
the latest changes in boost (to 1.60.1), in the patch, for development purposes.

The wxpython package tries to install the wxPython headers in
gnu/store/...-wxwidgets-3.0.2/include by default. I force set WXPREFIX
in config.py to get around that. In turn, in the kicad package, the
include path has to be set with a cmake flag, to find the wxPython
headers. I am sure there is a better way to handle this, but this is how I got 
it
to build for now.

The phase that replaces 'install in wxpython, can be obviously ommitted, if
your patch to honor configure-flags in python build phase is accepted.

I think you are correct, in that wxwidgets should propagate gtk.

I am waiting for some feedback on the patch.

Greetings
