As I said, that is what you are already doing with wxwidget2.8, as that disables all the assertions for you! So building against wxwidgets3.0 with -DNDEBUG isn't a regression. Of course it would be better to not do that and fix all those assertions, and it is great that upstream is no longer hiding those problems. But we shouldn't block on that. A bugfix release with fixes for those can come at any moment. Emilio -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
