Now, you want to set up your own F<Wx.pm> with debugging enabled.
First, install the prerequisites for Wx. I did it like this:

  cpan> look Wx
  ...
  $ perl Makefile.PL
  ... blah blah missing this or that ...

Take note of the missing dependencies, exit to the CPAN shell, install
the missing modules, then C<look Wx> again.

=item *

If you have all F<Wx.pm> dependencies in place, build C<Wx> like this:

  perl Makefile.PL --wx-debug --wx-unicode
  make
  make test
  make install

Once F<Wx.pm> is installed, check out Padre from the Subversion
repository and cd to its directory under F<trunk/Padre>.

=item *

Run C<cpan .> to automatically install all dependencies of Padre!

=item *

Run the following to set up Padre:

  perl Makefile.PL
  make

=item *

Run F<dev> to start Padre from your checkout.

  perl dev

or with all plugins loaded:

  perl dev -h

or with the Perl debugger:

  perl dev -d

=item *

Don't be annoyed by the Wx popups complaining about
assertion-failures. They indicate potential bugs that probably need
attention. If you get these, that means it was worth the effort to
build a debugging perl and Wx! Note that the stack backtraces given are
at the C level, not Perl backtraces.
