Hi, It seems that the wx community prefers to distribute source files .tar.bz2 . However, I happened to download the .tar.gz file at the end of the long list of assets at the bottom of this page: https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/releases/tag/v3.2.10 It doesn't contain everything and, if you try using cmake to build from there, you get this error : CMake Error at build/cmake/functions.cmake:719 (message): wxregex file does not exist: "D:/build/wxWidgets-3.2.10/3rdparty/pcre/src/pcre2_auto_possess.c". Make sure you checkout the git submodules. Call Stack (most recent call first): build/cmake/lib/regex.cmake:24 (wx_add_builtin_library) build/cmake/lib/CMakeLists.txt:29 (include) I think that the two "Source code" assets at the end of the list might be auto generated by GitHub without the submodules. It might save someone some frustration if these could be deleted or suppressed.
