Compiling 17.12 on Linux - best to use wx 2.8? 3.0? or 3.1?

[awake]

As the subject line says - is there a preference for which version of wxWidgets to use? I just successfully compiled against 2.8.12, and thus far it seems to be working fine (but need more testing to be sure) - is there any advantage to compiling vs. 3.0 or 3.1?

Normally you compile against whatever wxWidgets version is packaged by the Linux OS.

On Windows, there are known wxWidgets 3.0 bugs in Code::Blocks.
On Linux, normally wxWidgets 3.0 is used; so, it is easier to confirm issues if you use wxWidgets 3.0.
On Mac OS, wxWidgets 3.1 is normally used because the versions before that have a lot of wxWidgets known bugs on Mac.

So, sounds like it is best to use wx3.0 for compiling c:b on Linux. But if jens' updated .deb files work, it may be a moot point for me ...
