My understanding is that wxPython 4.2.0 is required for wxWidgets 3.2.0 (at

Correct.  Fedora requires wxPython 4.2.0 in order to use wxWidgets 3.2.0.

If so, I think the tradeoff is worth it and we should recommend moving to the 
new release even without time to do thorough testing of Python plugins.

    I'm not really sure.  Today is actually the scheduled F37 freeze date, but 
the schedule [1] says the date is approximate.  I can go back and ask when they 
absolutely need to know, but I think we have the best chance of influencing the 
decision if we can comment in the next day or two.  I realize that isn't much 
time...

    I've tested KiCad 6.0.7 with wxPuthon 4.2.0 on Rawhide, both x86_64 and 
aarch64.  I've tried opening the python console and I've used the footprint 
wizard to create a BGA.  What plugins should I test?

    Also, if others want to test, they'll need a Rawhide VM.  I can provide a 
link to the builds of wxPython and KiCad, as well as instructions on how to 
install.
