Re: `import wx` raising `AttributeError`

Thats not the REAL error, check below from my console:

mario@pc:~$ python3
Python 3.6.8 (default, Oct  7 2019, 12:59:55)
[GCC 8.3.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import wx
>>> __version__ = wx.__version__.VERSION_STRING
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'VERSION_STRING'
