Bug#1090963: libwx-perl: wxPerl fork (3.004) available

[Roland Rosenfeld]

Package: libwx-perl
Version: 1:0.9932-8
Severity: wishlist

I just want to document that there exists a fork of the original
wxPerl: https://github.com/sciurius/wxPerl

The development of the original version 0.9932 from
https://sourceforge.net/p/wxperl/code/HEAD/tree/ seems to be frozen
since 2017-04-29, while the fork starts with some SVN checkin (0.9932
plus some more patches of the original author) and adds several
patches to this (including Debian and Fedora patches).

I asked the author of the fork about maintaining it for CPAN, but he
restrains (see
https://github.com/ChordPro/chordpro/issues/483#issuecomment-2557677159)

Anyway, we should consider using his fork as a new base of libwx-perl
instead of the 7 year old "official" CPAN version.

Greetings
Roland
