Then the man page wouldn't be installed when /etc/alternatives/wx-config
was provided by a different wx version/flavour. It seems worse to not
have the man page in some cases when the program is there than the current
situation.
We'd need to have a wx-dev-common or similar to house the man page and
then have that pulled in by any wx -dev package, but this doesn't seem to
really justify splitting things into even more packages.
