The wx/__version__.py file is generated as part of the build, so perhaps 
there is something in the conda build scripts or packaging that is either 
removing or simply not including the file? I don't have any ideas why it 
would be an AttributeError however. Weird things can happen if there is a 
wx.py module being imported rather than wxPython's wx package, but 
presumably it would not be getting to the line above if that were the case.
