pgadmin installation error while compiling from source

I'm trying to build pgadmin 1.20 from source. I already have 1.20.0 installed.

Anyway, I followed the script from INSTALL file. This is where I'm stuck:

make    

./pgadmin/ui/embed-xrc

Rebuilding xrcdialogs.cpp...    

wxrc: error while loading shared libraries: libwx_baseu_xml-2.8.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory    

diff: ./pgadmin/ui/xrcDialogs.cpp.new: No such file or directory    

mv: cannot stat ‘./pgadmin/ui/xrcDialogs.cpp.new’: No such file or directory    

Makefile:1024: recipe for target 'xrc' failed make: *** [xrc] Error 1

I tried reconfiguring to wxGTK-2.8.12 version

./configure –prefix=/usr/local/WX --with-gtk --enable-gtk2 --enable-unicode.

I got the same message. I tried deleting everything and starting from scratch,using pgadmin 1.20. I tried reinstalling wxGTK 2.8.12. All in vain.

Any ideas where I should start looking?

Install libxml2 and libxslt if you have not already.

You should make sure that you have the library files for libwx_baseu_xml in /usr/local/lib or somewhere in your computer. Also make sure that this location of libwx_baseu_xml is in the library search path in /etc/ld.so.conf

You can update the libraries by simply executing the following command:

sudo ldconfig

In most cases this should solve the problem.
