Thanks for the clarification. It makes sense to me now.

I've got a package with both 0.2.0 and 0.6.0 in it. I compared it with
the 2.8.5 version of the package:

http://dpaste.com/107154/

It doesn't seem right. There are three files that are missing from my
2.8.5, that are present in the 2.8.5 from the current catalog:

-/opt/csw/lib/libwx_gtk2u-2.8.so --> libwx_gtk2u-2.8.so.0
-/opt/csw/lib/libwx_gtk2u-2.8.so.0 --> libwx_gtk2u-2.8.so.0.2.0
-/opt/csw/lib/libwx_gtk2u-2.8.so.0.2.0

I checked it -- those files don't get created in my 2.8.5. After the
compilation is finished, they just aren't there.

There are also additional shared objects:

+/opt/csw/lib/libwx_baseu-2.8.so --> libwx_baseu-2.8.so.0
+/opt/csw/lib/libwx_baseu-2.8.so.0 --> libwx_baseu-2.8.so.0.6.0

+/opt/csw/lib/libwx_baseu_xml-2.8.so.0.2.0
+/opt/csw/lib/libwx_baseu_xml-2.8.so.0.6.0

...which aren't there in 2.8.5. Is my 2.8.5 from the original
maintainer's 2.8.5? Or is it something in the compilation options?
(wxwidgets have a lot of them).

It looks like it might be the question of setting --enable-monolithic.
It isn't the default for wxwidgets. Should should be used: the library
default or the previous package's setting?
