[Python-apps-team] Bug#645568: Please update to wxwidgets2.8

[Olly Betts]

Package: pykaraoke
Version: 0.7.3-1

I'm trying to get packages to migrate from wxwidgets2.6 to wxwidgets2.8
so we can remove the former from the archive - it's no longer supported
upstream, and wxwidgets3.0 is supposed to be out early next year.

Currently pykaraoke depends (and build-depends) on python-wxgtk2.6.  However,
the code tells wxversion only that it needs at least version 2.6, so it will
already get run with 2.8 if both versions are installed and the user hasn't
changed the alternative setting from the default:

wxversion.ensureMinimal('2.6')

Since python-wxgtk2.8 is depended on by quite a few packages, the reality is
that many users will have been running with 2.8 for some time already, so this
should be a painless change.

If you'd like me to NMU this change, please just let me know.

Cheers,
    Olly
