Bug#613431: status update?



Hi Olly,

What's the status of your packaging? wxWidgets 2.9.5 has been
released roughly a month ago. I would like to update aegisub to 3.x
branch, since 2.x branch is no longer maintained by upstream
maintainers.

ABI bumps in libwxWidgets would mainly be a problem for reverse
dependencies. From my perspective (maintainer of a reverse
depdendency) multiple ABI bumps in wxWidgets are the lesser evil
compared to being totally unsupported by upstream developers.

Please note, that having software with an unstable API in Debian is
not that uncommon (enlightenment [by now stable], libfso*,
libradare*, ...).  It obviously increases the maintenance work,
though.
