As to the first look at pkg-which(8):
% pkg which /usr/local/lib/libwx_gtk2_aui-2.8.so.0
/usr/local/lib/libwx_gtk2_aui-2.8.so.0 was installed by package wxgtk2-2.8.12_2
% pkg which -o /usr/local/lib/libwx_gtk2_aui-2.8.so.0
/usr/local/lib/libwx_gtk2_aui-2.8.so.0 was installed by package
x11-toolkits/wxgtk28
(the -q flag makes it all lovely & terse)

As to the second:
I don't know, some ports have an option to build with debug symbols, but if not
you might have to edit some Makefiles, or worse.
