Fair enough. I haven't tried using the distro packages on Linux myself, 
but you might check that you also have libwxgtk-2.8 and libwxgtk2.8-dev

libwxbase contains only the non GUI classes. Only libwxgtk has 
libgstreamer as a dependency, and that's where the MediaCtrl code is found.

Sorry for the inconvenience but wxwidgets has hundreds of compile-time 
options and different ways to organise the library files. It's quite 
tricky to cope with all the variations.
