Hi,

Thanks for your interest in wxLauncher. However, it's been superseded by Knossos, so please take a look at that instead.

For help building Knossos on Linux, I suggest seeking support from the Hard Light Productions (HLP) community. Please see the HLP forums' Knossos thread, or join the #knossos channel on the HLP Discord server (link is reachable from the top navigation bar in the HLP forums).

Thanks again!

For building Knossos, while these build instructions are slightly outdated, they should point you in the right direction. For further help, please check with the HLP community, as described above.
