wx-config is not giving debug library

CodeLite v 16, latest stable
OS is Windows 10
Build System CMake
I found a strange thing, ld.exe would complain missing library if I used debug version of wxWidgets. So I spent hours trying to figure out. Down a rabbit trail I found something useful that might be key to my puzzle. wx-config.exe is not spitting out debug version of library even when debug option is specified. It will always spit release version.
See the image for more information.
Is this a bug or I'm doing something wrong?
Thanks

Testing latest bleeding edge version (16.5.0) it also spits wrong library name
Code: Select all
-lwxmsw32u_xrcd -lwxmsw32u_webviewd -lwxmsw32u_htmld -lwxmsw32u_qad -lwxmsw32u_advd -lwxmsw32u_cored -lwxbase32u_xmld -lwxbase32u_netd -lwxbase32ud
AFAIK, it should be -lwxmsw32ud_xrc not -lwxmsw32u_xrcd
Since no body complained here, is it that people don't use debug or am just an idiot doing things wrong way?
