yes, the current plans for ngspice-dfsg are an outcome of my various conversations with Gudjon (CC'd) who has obviously done the maintenance of src:ngspice. We also talked about the needed maintenance of the current ngspice packages in non-free after the introducing of ngspice-dfsg. I will take care on this in the long term but I'm happy for any help on this as I'm not very experienced with TclTK e.g. The libngspice library is a optional dependency for KiCad, but no hard requirement. So uploading ngspice-dfsg isn't a very high priority on my side. I will need to prepare the needed changes for ngspice in non-free before finally uploading the dfsg variant. This will all happen within the experimental release. Regards Carsten
