Hi Adam, thanks for taking the time to file this bug report back in 2010. This is intentional, as erlang-wx relies on wxwindows, which is in universe, and it has been decided wxwindows will not be moved to main.

Closing as Invalid. If you have additional information please feel free to re-open the bug, or file a new one explaining what the issue is.
