Due to the setup I'm using to compile Jazz++, you will need to build 
wxWidgets.  The stock build uses different configuration options that 
will cause the complaints you are seeing.

I'm planning on posting wxWidgets build instructions on the Jazz++ web 
site.  These instructions should build a version of wxWidgets that is 
compatible with Jazz++.  Unfortunately, that will not happen until 
tonight (I am current at my day job).  Until then, this is how to go 
about it...

1. Create a directory under your home directory.  I typically use 
"OutsideSource" and change directory to that location.

cd
mkdir OutsideSource
cd OutsideSource

2. Checkout the 2.8 branch of wxWidgets using the following command. 
You must have a Subversion client loaded on your machine.  The following 
text should all be on one line.

svn checkout 
http://svn.wxwidgets.org/svn/wx/wxWidgets/branches/WX_2_8_BRANCH 
wxWidgets-2.8

3. Create a directory called "WxBuild" in parallel with the 
wxWidgets-2.8 directory and change directory to that location.

mkdir WxBuild
cd WxBuild

4. Run the wxWidgets supplied configure command with the following 
configure options.  The following text should all be on one line.

../wxWidgets-2.8/configure
--disable-no_exceptions
--disable-no_rtti
--disable-shared
--disable-compat26
--disable-unicode
--with-regex=builtin
--enable-std_iostreams
--enable-std_string
--enable-stl
--with-gtk

5. Run make using the following command.  This will write a file called 
BuildLog that may be useful if you run into trouble.

make 2>&1 | tee BuildLog

6.  If all  goes well with the build, try to install wxWidgets as root.

su
make install

Eventually Jazz++ will be using tex2rtf to build a help file.  I have a 
patch for tex2rtf that you will need to use to build it with the 
configure options listed above... but first things first ;-)

Robert I really appreciate you attempt to build Jazz++ on a Debian box.

Let me know how it's going,
Pete
