The reason for this is that due to the fact that no other major distribution builds wxWidgets with stl the audacity developers aren't interested in fixing their software to build with stl enabled wxWidgets. Wouldn't it make more sense just to create that package without copying, just by adding another *.spec file and make a link package? Maintaining two variants in two different projects is really painful and error-prone. You can create a link to m:libs once after the

If it's the case, we have to reconsider whether it's a good idea to have a package without STL at all. Is it only about the maintenance burden, or is it by other reasons? (Now adding Jan to Cc.)
From a maintenance point of view I just have to keep patches up to date and follow wxWidgets. I don't mind too much as long as it's only in multimedia:libs. But, we need to push this to FACTORY/TW (since audacity requires it now), and this is a bigger problem from the maintenance POV.
A wxWidgets link would be the easiest way, it would be low maintainance and wouldn't need a linked package in Packman. Yes.
