It can't go in the -dev packages, its common to all of them, that's why wx-common exists. The missing dep for the wx-base package has gone unnoticed until now though. I'm not sure what I find more surprising though, that someone is using wxbase without also needing the gui libs, or that you plan to use wxwin.m4 to do it ... Just call $(shell wx-config ...) directly from your own makefiles. It's much simpler, much less prone to doing surprising things, and doesn't add 12k to your source to do just that.
