Package: src:asc
Version: 2.6.1.0-5
Severity: serious
Justification: blocks the almost-complete wxwidgets3.0-gtk3 transition

According to the transition tracker, the wxwidgets3.0-gtk3 transition is
96% and the only remaining blockers are a missing mips64el build of
codelite (currently building) and a missing mipsel build of mrpt (due
for AUTORM from testing on 2019-10-28):

https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/wxwidgets3.0-gtk3.html

However, checking "dak rm -Rn -b libwxgtk3.0-dev" on coccia I see that
your package has a build-dependency on libwxgtk3.0-dev which doesn't
result in any libwxgtk* shlib dependencies in the built packages.

The asc binary package does get a dependency on libwxbase3.0-0v5,
which suggests that your package should actually build-depend on
libwxbase3.0-dev.  However trying a build with that change it fails
due to not finding autotools macros 'AM_OPTIONS_WXCONFIG' and
'AM_PATH_WXCONFIG', so the correct fix is to update your package to
use libwxgtk3.0-gtk3-dev instead.

Let me know if you'd like me to NMU a fix for this.

Cheers,
    Olly
