It's not the worst I've seen but it needs some maintenance. I’m going to see if
I can make it better.

I have just pushed a commit to the master branch (version 7.99) that makes
ngspice a required dependency for building KiCad, this means the previous
compile option of KICAD_SPICE is now never used (so it can be removed from
any build scripts/packaging scripts), and you will need to have the ngspice

I'll change the fedora nightlies to match. I cannot update the downstream
packages until we spin a 7.0.2 with your changes.

Thanks for updating the nightlies. Just to clarify though, this change will
not be backported to v7, so you should keep the flag for the downstream v7
packages until you rebase to v8 when it is released.

Thanks for the clarification. I'll leave the downstream as is until v8.

If KiCad indeed becomes easier to package, we'll know what kind of spirit
to thank, besides the personal free time itself.
Not the kind that comes in bottles, I hope 😊
Cheers!
