I am trying to install wxPython version 3.0.2.0 on Ubuntu. I did ./configure, make and sudo make install. There is no error and it ended with the following message. 

The installation of wxWidgets is finished.  On certain
 platforms (e.g. Linux) you'll now have to run ldconfig
 if you installed a shared library and also modify the
 LD_LIBRARY_PATH (or equivalent) environment variable.
 
 wxWidgets comes with no guarantees and doesn't claim
 to be suitable for any purpose.

I am not sure what command to run to set this. Where should I set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to complete the installation? 
I confirmed my installation is not working by doing import wx & wx.version().

This is the normal messege presented at the end and there's nothing to worry about. I recommend running "sudo ldconfig" from the terminal, without quotes of course. This should assist with making sure wxWidgets is available for use.
