OK, so wxwidgets2.9 is currently in NEW, and heading for experimental in
preparation for a wxwidgets 3.0 release which looks like it should
finally happen soon. Upstream are aiming to release the first release
candidate for 3.0 on 2012-09-29.
In 2.9 and 3.0, upstream now default to enabling __WXDEBUG__ (which is
the feature which we enable in the 2.8 -dbg packages), so the -dbg
packages there just contain debugging symbols, which addresses this
bug fully there.
My plan is to attempt to migrate everyone onto wxwidgets3.0 for Jessie,
and I'm looking to focus my energy on that. So I'm going to mark this
bug as "wontfix" for wxwidgets2.8 now.
Cheers,
Olly
