dear jordan,

thank you for giving cba a trial and for the hint concerning the build deps, (i was thinking that it is determined automatically), i now added libwxgtk2.8-dev manually to the depends in the control file, i hope this helps.

kind regards,

pierrot

it doesnt work at all, if i deinstall wxwidgets-dev library the source package builds without complains, is there any possibility to add build dependencies manually? how come the standards version of the control-file generated by dh-make is 3.8.4, but lintian wants 3.9.0, does this mean dh-make is not up-to-date? changing it manually seems not to be the way, but it appeases lintian at least. kind regards, pierrot.
