when i hover the mouse over the wingIDE in the taskbar, instead of the program name it it says "unknown'when i right click on the icon, all it says is the current file name in wingIDE. ,instead of the popup menu allowing me to add it as a favorite to the task bar,it would be great to have it ALWAYS in the task bar like the other apps can be...on Ubuntu16.04 , it works....any ideas?

fedora 26 workstation, wingpro 6.0.7-1 (rev 47fe5b0dd72b) using Fedora 26 python 3.6.2 wxPyton 4.0.0b2

'import wx' works fine but"import wx.dataview as dv"  causes an error:

File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/wx/dataview.py", line 12, in <module>  from ._dataview import *builtins.ImportError: libSDL-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

so in the terminal i did:

sudo yum import libSDL-1.2.so.0

Package SDL-1.2.15-24.fc26.i686 is already installed, skipping.
Dependencies resolved.
Nothing to do.
Complete!

so it IS installed. so where is wingIDE looking for it?
