Unfortunately wxGTK from freshrpms can't live together with wxGTK2 from 
fedora.us, but after some work I installed:
wxPythonGTK2-2.4.2.4-0.fdr.3.2
wxGTK2-2.4.2-0.fdr.2.2
wxGTK-common-2.4.2-0.fdr.2.2
wxGTK-common-devel-2.4.2-0.fdr.2.2
wxGTK2-devel-2.4.2-0.fdr.2.2
wxGTK2-gl-2.4.2-0.fdr.2.2
from fedora.us. Your Thuban rpm for FC2 (and my recompilation too) 
*works* with some asserts:
[szpak at szpak us]$ thuban
No thubanstart module available

** (thuban:2773): CRITICAL **: file pango-layout.c: line 268 
(pango_layout_new): assertion `context != NULL' failed

** (thuban:2773): CRITICAL **: file pango-layout.c: line 544

Field with loaded layers is little strange, but I can add layer in it.
I don't know why it doesn't work with wxGTK packages from freshrpms.net. 
Maybe You can try to temporary install it to tests:
http://tettnang.freshrpms.net/rpm.html?id=261
and (in it's necessary wxPython from wxPython.org)
https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=10718&package_id=10559&release_id=188259

If it will work at your system maybe gdb helps to determine segmentation 
reason (in this case please tell me what gdb commands do You need - I 
haven't used gdb for years) in my case.

:)
You're amazing. Where did you learn Polish?
"Czesc" is correct in Internet slang (and of course it's used there). In 
formal Polish we write "Cześć" (chars in ISO-8859-2).
