here is what I'm planning to do concerning debian packages release and this wxWindows 2.5 "problem" :

Woody debian stable release : as this the official release, we won't be able to integrate new software in it... So, I
thinkwe can release a package for this release (on snake) with a link on our own wx 2.5 package (I won't integrate
wxPythonwhich seems to be THE real problem at this time... pgadmin3 has nothing to do with it (?) ). These debian
packageswill be "aptable" from snake and its mirrors but no official debian repository. 

Testing and Unstable : we are obliged for the moment to link without unicode support and against wxWindows 2.4 + GTK
1.2if we want to be able to integrate official debian repository. Ron Lee who is responsible of wxWindows debian
packageswill surely release a cvs snapshot package of 2.5 and I've asked him if it is possible to integrate unicode
support.

Experimental : here we can do about everything we want, so I I'll  produce a wxWindows 2.5 with gtk2 and unicode in it
specificto pgadmin3. 

Any suggestions concerning this is welcome!

best,

Raphaël
