The vast majority of releases of pgAdmin have relied on non-stable 
releases of wxWidgets - in fact, I think the *only* series that did 
actually use the stable releases was 1.4. With 1.0 we had our own fork 
of wxWidgets, and for 1.2 we recommended 2.5.3.

Anyway, I'll leave it in your expert hands. Whenever I use an RPM based 
linux distro I seem to end up with an irrepairably corrupted RPM 
database anyway, so I try to stay clear of them altogether now :-p
