Library: wxsqlite3-3.5.5-1

Executing wxWidgets-based applications that depend on wxsqlite3 may crash depending on "flavour" of wxWidgets used to build applications.
wxsqlite3 in repositories is built with wxGTK3 libraries. If an application is built using wxGTK2 but makes use of wxsqlite3, the following error message is produced:
"GTK+ 2.x symbols detected. Using GTK+ 2.x and GTK+ 3 in the same process is not supported"

Workaround:
Manual install of wxsqlite3 package with change to PKGBUILD file.
Change line 22
from: "/configure --with-wx-config=/usr/bin/wx-config-gtk3..."
to: "./configure --with-wx-config=/usr/bin/wx-config..." [assumes wx-config points to GTK2 build]
And exclude wxsqlite3 from updating via pacman

If possible, can consideration be given to GTK2/GTK3 builds going forward?
This task depends upon
