Description

Dolphin doesn't build anymore with wxWidgets 2.9.4 since https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/commit/90df5efd01782847f6427efa552b4a2a5a007413 .

I'd personally like keeping compatibility since openSUSE yet doesn't include wxw3 packages. I'm not sure if that applies to any stable releases of common distributions (other than those which are bleeding edge anyway). Debian stable does not; Ubuntu 14.04 does, so do Debian testing, Fedora>=19 and Arch.

We have two options to deal with this:
a) revert the commit mentioned above. I tested this out locally, it only requires fixing a small conflict and build works perfectly fine after that.
b) drop support for wxWidgets < 3.0 from CMakeLists.txt

Marked as milestone current because this is sort of relevant for packaging.

And Debian stable does not ship 2.9 either (as they should, since it's not a stable release). The only distribution we know of so far that released with 2.9 and not 3.0 is openSUSE, which is a minority and is in the wrong for officially releasing with a preview version of WX (2.9 is a dev/preview release) anyway.

My Arch Linux install was stuck on 2.9.

Turns out they just deleted the 2.9 package and replaced it with a 3.0 package, which didn't trigged an upgrade for me.
