Are there any news on how to proceed in these cases? i.e. having
different wxwidgets libraries installed (e.g. 2.6 and 2.8 in Debian
sid)?  I don't understand why giving --with-wx=[path to 2.8 version]
*and* --with-wxwidgets works (although it shouldn't), whereas only
--with-wxwidgets=[path to 2.8 version] doesn't.  Thanks.
