This transition happened and the GTK-2-using packages of wxwidgets3.0
were removed some time ago.

This bug was closed when spek was removed from unstable - presumably it
was reopened motivated by the ITP for spek (#1007814) to ensure it's
addressed by the reintroduced package, though really it will have to be
addressed because there just isn't a GTK 2 version to build against in
unstable any more.

However we're now in the most of the way through a transition to
wxwidgets3.2 and a bug to ensure a reintroduced package uses that
rather than wxwidgets3.0 does seem useful, so updating the bug to be
for that purpose.

The main build-dependency to use is libwxgtk3.2-dev - if you use
any of the wxWidgets libraries which we have separate binary packages
for you will also need the corresponding libwxgtk-*3.2-dev packages
too.
