wxwidgets2.8 only enabled the media plugin recently, see #588104.

Now that it's enabled, the test suite will try to load it but fails
because the Perl bindings are not built.

The Perl bindings are not built because libalien-wxwidgets-perl isn't
up to date, so the media plugin is not listed in
 /usr/lib/perl5/Alien/wxWidgets/Config/gtk2_2_8_12_uni_gcc_3_4.pm

Rebuilding libalien-wxwidgets-perl with libwxgtk-media2.8-dev, or
something thereabouts, fixes this for me.

This suggests that libalien-wxwidgets-perl may need a tighter
dependency on libwxgtk2.8-dev. Not sure how tight it should be.

Possibly some Breaks entries are also warranted?
