Package: libwxgtk2.5-dev
Version: 2.5.3.2
Severity: important
libwxgtk2.5-dev provides the wx-config program to let you do
`wx-config --cxxflags`, etc. in your Makefile.
If you want to build a program with wxWidgets linked statically, you
use `wx-config --static --libs`, which outputs:
-pthread -L/usr/X11R6/lib /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_xrc-2.5.a
/usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_html-2.5.a /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_adv-2.5.a
/usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u_core-2.5.a /usr/lib/libwx_baseu_xml-2.5.a
/usr/lib/libwx_baseu_net-2.5.a /usr/lib/libwx_baseu-2.5.a
-Wl,--export-dynamic -pthread -lgtk-x11-2.0 -lgdk-x11-2.0 -latk-1.0
-lgdk_pixbuf-2.0 -lpangoxft-1.0 -lpangox-1.0 -lpango-1.0 -lgobject-2.0
-lgmodule-2.0 -lgthread-2.0 -lglib-2.0 -lXinerama -lXxf86vm -lpng -ljpeg
-ltiff -lexpat -lz -ldl -lm -lwxregexu-2.5
But this means that you need to have libtiff.so (from the libtiff4-dev
package), as well as the dev packages for the other listed libraries.
Should these not be listed as Depends: for libwxgtk2.5-dev ?

No, I don't think so, because you can build wx apps that don't depend
on libtiff et al. Certainly any app package that calls wx-config as
you show above should build depend in this way, but you don't need these
libraries for this package to be functional, and people who don't need
them shouldn't be forced to install them as a convenience to people who
do.
I'll look if some suggestions might be in order though.
thanks,
Ron
