The wx build dependency is no longer actually used by icinga2 - the
binary packages don't have any generated dependency on the wx runtime
libraries, and the source of the package doesn't seem to contain any
references to wxWidgets outside of changelog files and debian/control:

$ grep -ir '\(lib\|\<\)wx' 2>/dev/null
CHANGELOG.md:* [#3663](https://github.com/icinga/icinga2/issues/3663) (Documentation): Update wxWidgets documentation for Icinga Studio
CHANGELOG.md:* [#3628](https://github.com/icinga/icinga2/issues/3628) (Documentation): Mention wxWidget \(optional\) requirement in INSTALL.md
debian/changelog:  * Switch to wxWidgets GTK 3 implementation.
debian/control:               libwxgtk3.0-gtk3-dev,
agent/windows-setup-agent/SetupWizard.resx:        mjgxdm0pQvOqLMUqU/wxa0usZMmEXH/WTBqd4y/mP/aLYqtHp5St3n9zNGd7NV5YU44JOSWEt3JM21SJ

I think this is probably due to this change in 2.9.0-1:

  * Drop icinga2-studio package, removed upstream.

So just dropping libwxgtk3.0-gtk3-dev from Build-Depends looks to be
the correct course of action here.

Cheers,
