Martin, first you need to visit the wxsqlite and wxcurl (etc) project 
pages, pull the source and compare with the source which is bundled in 
guayadeque. If markedly different (I'm guessing it's not) you will need 
to submit review requests for each package and patch the CMakeLists.txt 
file of guayadeque to dynamically link these libraries.

I'm sure upstream will welcome your patch.

If the author of guayadeque has significantly changed the source of 
these sub-projects you may apply for an exemption, but it is on you to 
determine this.
