I followed the github instructions:   
 
$ python3 build.py 3.4 clean
$ python3 build.py 3.4 dox
$ python3 build.py 3.4 etg
$ python3 build.py 3.4 sip
$ python3 build.py 3.4 build
$ sudo python3 build.py 3.4 install

(I also tried these combined.)

I checked /usr/lib/python3.4/site-packages.  There are packages there, but 
not wx.

There is a /usr/lib64/python3.4/site-packages/wx/core.pyi.  I don't know 
what the pyi extension means.  It looks like a regular .py file.

What do you mean "build as a wheel"?
