it seems so.
the only way to be sure is that on your side to install a completely new 
Ubuntu, or Debian on VirtualBox, and then do

sudo apt-get install libwxgtk3.0-dev

VirtualBox can be installed on Windows or Mac (this is called the host 
system).
I am running it on my Windows machine and I have three linux installed on it 
, ubuntu, centos, debian
