I maintain the KiCad packages. We have a new bug report:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2393850
Here is the gist of it:
Fatal Python error: _Py_CheckRecursiveCall: Unrecoverable stack overflow
(used -406047 kB) while calling a Python object
I contacted the upstream KiCad devs and got a reply that the following
code appears to be the cause:
...
I attached a backtrace for reference. I'm not sure what to do with this.
I don't know if it is a python issue or a wxpython issue or something else
entirely.
Please let me know if the error suggests anything.
Are you able to reproduce the issue outside of kicad using that snippet
above? I cannot.

I'd like to raise this topic again. Since a Python 3.14 RC has been pulled
into F43, KiCad will be completely broken there. And of course it is broken on
Rawhide.
There are several bug reports:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2393850
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2401327
The upstream developers cannot address this, as they stated in a bug report
that I filed with them:
https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/21890
The long-term plan is to strip python out of KiCad. That is expected to happen
in 3 or 4 months, perhaps sooner. But users are feeling the pain already and
the only solution I can offer them is to stay on Fedora 42 indefinitely or use
the flatpak provided by the KiCad project, because it embeds an older, working
version of python.
It would be really great to get some python developers engaged with this
issue. It appears to be related to the aggressive stack protection that was
recently added, as documented here:
https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/main/InternalDocs/stack_protection.md
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Hey Steve,
I've forwarded this to Python upstream:
https://discuss.python.org/t/fatal-python-error-py-checkrecursivecall-unrecoverable-stack-overflow-used-406047-kb-while-calling-a-python-object/104183
And will also ask some CPython developers to have a look.
