I installed wxWidgets-3.0.4 from both the installation executable and with the zip file. Both installations were installed in the main drive directory. Drive:\wxWidgets\.. is correct.
I built the libraries using mysys2 and mingw64.
This is my config file:

I built one debug and one release. I moved the folder from wxWidgets-3.0.4\build\msw\gcc_lib\
to wxWidgets-3.0.4\lib\ and renamed it to wxBuild_debug. And one called wxBuild_release.
As a test, just now I again built /samples/minimal/ successfully.
So, that part seems to be working.
