Debian testing uses Python 2.3. The RPM was built with 2.2. hence this
version mismatch. Most of the time it's harmless in my experience,
though.

You need to use exactly the same wxWindows and wxPython versions that
Thuban was compiled with. It's unlikely that you will get the binary RPM
to work on your debian system.

The tarball contains the debian build files so you could build your own
.deb file. I'm not sure how that's done, though :). However, Silke says
she's going to build a new thuban debian package, so there might be an
unofficial (i.e. not official from debian) package on our FTP server
later today.
