Public bug reported:
I was trying to build a project that uses the StyledTextCtrl from
wxWidgets, and got the following output during ./configure:
checking whether wxWidgets OpenGL support works... no
checking wx/stc/stc.h usability... no
checking wx/stc/stc.h presence... yes
configure: WARNING: wx/stc/stc.h: present but cannot be compiled
configure: WARNING: wx/stc/stc.h: check for missing prerequisite headers?
configure: WARNING: wx/stc/stc.h: see the Autoconf documentation
configure: WARNING: wx/stc/stc.h: section "Present But Cannot Be Compiled"
configure: WARNING: wx/stc/stc.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result
configure: WARNING: wx/stc/stc.h: in the future, the compiler will take
precedence
checking for wx/stc/stc.h... yes
checking whether wxWidgets StyledTextCtrl support works... no
The test compile from config.log shows the following compile errors:

I found that by simply rebuilding the source package for
wxwidgets2.8_2.8.9.1-0ubuntu6, with no changes whatsoever, just letting
it use the default build options, and reinstalling from the resulting
.deb files, it fixed the problem.
The resulting package from the rebuild that specifically is broken in
the repo appears to be libwxgtk2.8-dev. Either the package just needs
to be rebuilt, or perhaps it has a build dependency that I happen to
have on my system that isn't present on the build machines and isn't
specified as a build dep in the control file?
** Affects: wxwidgets2.8 (Ubuntu)

StyledTextCtrl headers won't compile on Jaunty, appears to be just broken
packaging
