[Freewx-maint] Bug#786986: Wxwidgets webview link flags problem

wonderful! that was indeed an issue

honetly poedit has *never* been an rdep (at least in unstable, it has been for a while
in experimental)

I think you mean boinc there, and it still is an rdep in both unstable/testing.

The problem I think is who actually uses it, I guess you need to ask to remove boinc from
testing until the package is built again...

Do you have any ETA for 3.2?
I hope it won't take too much, or users will start complaining about missing boinc in testing

(I might have missed some easy solution to this problem, I'm not an ftpmaster, but I guess
the cruft leaved won't make the package without webview migrate so easily)

please let me know how to proceed with boinc :)

cheers,
(and thanks for the support so far!)
