It returns 2.4.5

It returns the same response as wx-config --help

configure followed by make produced this result:

Now that I have the older version of wxEuphoria working on Ubuntu,
I'm back in production. I hope you keep that on your website.

Perhaps the problem with the new version of wxEuphoria on Ubuntu is
simply that Ubuntu doesn't yet have an easy way to install the latest
version of wxWidgets (sudo apt-get install). Perhaps that will happen
in time. If so, then the old version of wxEuphoria will do until then.
