I checked that and (i'm also not a perl user, in fact i have never read
as much perl as in those packages in order to get slic3r :D) i can't
see any reason why it shouldn't find that library. It /is/ there. It's
part of wxwidgets. So i don't know what is going on there :/

As Tobias said, it might be perfectly fine to ignore these. I added the
relevant bits nonetheless, because it might be of help sometimes (or not
:D).

i don't know why i chose wxwidgets-gtk2 - it works perfectly fine with
wxwidgets, sorry!

I have modified the patch according to your suggestions.
