The Fedora 36 nightly builds are failing because wx 3.0 doesn't have the GetCharExcludes() function. F37 and newer are ok, because they have wx 3.2 which does have that function.

I don't intend to produce a 7.0 build for F36, unless I'm forced to by a CVE that cannot be fixed in 6.0.

I suppose the best option is to turn off the F36 nightly builds, if that is acceptable.

Hi Steve,

Dropping the F36 builds sounds fine to me, since it is going EOL in a few months anyway (so they would naturally fall off COPR then). It also wouldn't be trivial to move F36 to the wx 3.2-ish branch anyway, since it has wx 3.1.5 and a wxPython version for wx 3.0.5, so doing so would require custom packaging of wxPython, which isn't something that seems work doing just for a few months of support.

Thanks, Ian. I've turned off the F36 COPR builds.

I updated the cmake requirements so that this will get caught at configuration time now (for 7.99 only; we'll still support older wxWidgets on the 7.0 branch)
