Comment (by mojca@…):

 Just to clarify things a bit ...

 My main question is: do you plan to keep support for wxWidgets in the
 future?

 If you plan to remove support for wxWidgets, I can easily commit the
 change now.

 But if you would like to keep the option, there is no urgency to remove
 the option just for the sake of easier transition (even though I can also
 do that if you are ok with it and if you have no time to test). If you
 plan to keep support, the best thing to do would be to test the port now.
 The main question is whether the port is compatible with wxWidgets 2.9. In
 case it is, the situation is trivial - the dependency gets switched to
 {{{py${python.version}-wxpython-3.0}}} and that's all. In case it is not,
 an additional variant might be needed to distinguish between dependencies
 on wxWidgets 2.8 and wxGTK 2.8.

 There is one more thing I noticed now. All the port does is depend on
 wxpython. Shouldn't the port disable wxpython support when wxpython is
 installed, but the variant is not selected?
