phoenix wheels do not include wxversion

[Ian Bell]

I'm trying to get phoenix running on py3.3 using the development wheels at
http://wxpython.org/Phoenix/snapshot-builds/

When I download the 64-bit wheel and do a

pip install wxPython_Phoenix-3.0.1.dev76744-cp33-none-win_amd64.whl

I get it installed, but I can't get my wxpython+matplotlib code working.
The primary reason is that wxversion is missing.

import wxversion

In my normal py2.7 64-bit install, it works fine:

Hi Ian,

Not sure what Robin's plans are to support wxversion with Phoenix.

However there are a few other issues with matplotlib and Phoenix.

Some time ago I did a PR for the things I found, but at the time I
tested on Py2.7, don't know if more is needed for Py3.3.

The calls to wxversion you could just comment out, I think with the
wheels it is assumed that one uses virtualenv for version switching.

Zero. It is not going to be carried over and is going to die with Classic.

Yes. Or if multiple versions of Phoenix are needed in one Python
instance then they can be converted to eggs and pkg_resources can be
used to select one or the other.
