Since wxWindows Library Licence "is essentially the L-GPL" I assumed
it had the same conflicts as 'lgpl' .

Apache's license is actually "Apache License", still it's present as
"apache" in port_binary_distributable.tcl, if capitalization matters
why is this?
Because I mistakenly understood that wxWindows Library Licence was
bases on L-GPL 3, now I see it's based on version 2.

I got your previous reply as a clear to send.
I was eager to add the license as Jeremy asked to keep the license db
consistent and I filed a ticket to upgrade wxwidgets-devel.
Is there anything wrong apart the lgpl-3 bit?
