Hi,

FYI we just updated the DebianGIS build rules for 6.4 a few days ago
(it again builds with the instructions found in debian/README.debian).

AFAIU the wx support there is still somewhat in development, please report
any clearly packaging errors to DebianGIS directly:
  http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGis
No idea if Ubuntu follows debian for wx2.8 dir paths.
