I did find setup.h in /usr/X11R6/include/wx-2.6/gtk2-ansi-release-2.6
I installed wxgtk2 using portupgrade but no configuration screen came up.
What is the procedure to configure wxgtk2 if you use portupgrade? I see
that my setup.h has
#define wxUSE_MEDIACTRL 0
which is not what I want, so I need to reconfigure it but haven't been
able to find out how to do that.
