As Eric says, the problem is that the wx package is mostly doing its own thing using make so it doesn't respect many of the flags that the 'Simple' build system uses, like the --user / --global flags etc. The solution is either to switch to the simple build system or to put more work into passing flags to the ./configure script so the two work together better.
