Well, I don't remember why I did this, but I use different scripts for 
2.8 and 3.0.

For 3.0 or 3.0.1 I use the one I posted earlier and I suggest you do too.

For 2.8, I'm using an older baselined version from SVN trunk@3418, like 
this:

# Download and install Alien-wxWidgets, which downloads and compiles 
wxWidgets
apt-get -y install libglu1-mesa-dev freeglut3-dev mesa-common-dev 
libsdl1.2-dev         # Install OpenGL
apt-get -y install libwxgtk2.8-dev

cd ~
rm -rf Alien-wxWidgets
*svn co https://svn.code.sf.net/p/wxperl/code/Alien-wxWidgets/trunk@3418 
Alien-wxWidgets*
cd ~/Alien-wxWidgets
perl Build.PL \
     --wxWidgets-build='yes' \
     --wxWidgets-graphicscontext \
     --wxWidgets-build-opengl='no' \
     --wxWidgets-unicode=1 \
     --wx-unicode=1 \
     --wxWidgets-source='tar.gz'  \
     --wxWidgets-version=2.8.11 \
     --wxWidgets-extraflags="--enable-graphics_ctx \
                             --disable-compat26 \
                             --enable-mediactrl \
                             --with-libjpeg=builtin \
                             --with-libpng=builtin \
                             --with-regex=builtin \
                             --with-libtiff=builtin \
                             --with-zlib=builtin \
                             --with-expat=builtin \
                             --with-libxpm=builtin \
                             --with-gnome-print \
                             --with-gnomeprintui"

perl Build  # Download and compile wxWidgets.

perl Build install
ldconfig
cd ..

cd ~
rm -rf wxPerl
*svn co https://svn.code.sf.net/p/wxperl/code/wxPerl/trunk@3418 wxPerl*
cd ~/wxPerl
perl Makefile.PL
make
make install
cd ~

cpan -i Wx::GLCanvas
cpan -i Text::Patch
cpan -i Wx::PdfDocument
cpan -i Wx::Demo

I hope that works for you,

Steve.
