My bad in leaving both as mandatory. It should really be only wxMaxima.
I will take care of this change in the "final" patch I send in. So, where do
we go from here?
It would be great to get an update on this, so as to enable me to
re-create a spin with the updated kickstart file. My re-formatted
patch is ready and I used 'xsltproc' to check the XML file and sort
them within groups.

Many thanks in advance.
