force github file extension for fetch? (tar.bz2 instead of tar.gz)

In attempting to build a new port (prusa3d slicer) I need another new
port (wxWidgets). The original distfile fetch of wxWidgets was a .tar.gz.
The configure phase had an error; a search for the source of the error
turned up a bug (old) which claimed the error was solved by fetching the
distfile as a .tar.bz2.
.tar.bz2 is the github *nix distfile for the port.
Is it possible to force fetching of .tar.bz2 instead of .tar.gz if both are
available? Or how does one get around the problem?
11.2-RELEASE-p4
relevant Makefile details:
PORTNAME= wxwidgets
DISTVERSIONPREFIX= v
DISTVERSION= 3.1.2
USE_GITHUB= yes
GH_ACCOUNT= wxWidgets
GH_PROJECT= wxWidgets
Thanks,
Gary
