for example, mc. both cases the unstable versions contains security 
fixes, and the project does not provide fix for the latest stable version

oh, and depends() needs cleaning up. only depends=('curl' 'wxgtk') 
required. providing xorg is not necessary as wxgtk depens on gtk+, and 
gtk+ depends on x, and so on. btw xorg provides 'x', and please use 'x' 
as a dependency (for example if we would have an xfree86 package, that 
would provide 'x', too)

sry for not pointing out this in my previous mail
