If nothing depends on the headers, I'm not surprised. wx3.0-headers has 
nothing in the archive providing it, so it's OK that it stays if nothing 
conflicts with it; see section 4.8 [1] in the release notes how to 
remove obsolete packages.

Although I now somehow doubt that there's anything wrong, I like the 
maintainers of wxwidgets3.2 to double check (hence reassigning). The bug 
can be closed if this is intended behavior.
