+Build Troubleshooting
+---------------------
+
+When building Thuban, you might have problems because of a missing file
+wx/wxPython/wxPython.h.  This file is part of wxPython and may be
+packaged in a separate package.  Unfortunately, on some systems this
+file is not packaged at all.  On those systems you can try a work-around
+built into Thuban, by passing the --use-wx-python-swig-hack to the
+build_ext command.  This can be done on the command line for the build
+command like this:
+
+   python setup.py  build_ext --use-wx-python-swig-hack  build
+
+You can also use it with the install_local command:
+
+   python setup.py  build_ext --use-wx-python-swig-hack  install_local
+
+Note, that this work-around relies on some wxPython internals and may
+cease to work at some point.  We tested it with wxPython 2.4 and
+wxPython 2.5.
