libalien-wxwidgets-perl has a rather tight dependency on the 
libwxgtk3.0 version:
 libwxgtk3.0-dev (>= 3.0.0-4),
 libwxgtk3.0-dev (<< 3.0.1~)

I am not exactly sure why this is so, but at least it is set during 
build time, so a NMU takes care of it and no source upload is 
necessary.

My guess is that since the package provides information about the 
specific conditions under which the Wx library was built, it needs to 
be rebuilt whenever the Wx library is changed.

Maybe others in the group can provide more input, for example whether 
depending on << 3.1 (i.e. ignore patchlevel changes) would be 
sufficient.


Cheers,
