@electro707, I am not awareof ny verison bump requirement from upstream, what I think you are facing is that you may have installed a wxpython version that requries wx 3.1, maybe oyu insalled wxpython 4.1?

Looks like, as of 2021-10-23, that KiCad requires WxWidgets 3.1.5:

CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-3.21/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:230 (message):

  CMakeLists.txt:876 (find_package)

But the non-AUR wxgtk3 package is using the stable wx release of 3.0.5

as per https://forum.kicad.info/t/warning-avoid-all-links-to-kicad-pcb-org-use-kicad-org/31521 the upstream url should probably be changed to kicad.org

Hey, can you add -G Ninja to the cmake options and then change make to cmake --build . then the make install line can become DESTDIR="${pkgdir}" cmake --build . -- install

makes the build go brrr

I needed to use wxgtk3-dev from AUR instead of WXGTK3 and the fowllowing patch to build.

@Nick for the Problem that Knapik talked about, i had the same Problem with the kicad-nightly package and DX-Mon said to me that i had to downgrade the wxPython Package to Version 4.0.7.2-5. Here the Link to the Package.

@kanpik, perhaps it helps you.

@knapik For some reason python-wxpython-4.1.1-1 reports 3.1.5 as the wxWidgets_version

Python 3.9.5 (default, May 12 2021, 17:14:51) 
[GCC 10.2.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import wx
>>> wx.wxWidgets_version
'wxWidgets 3.1.5'
>

Adding wxWidgets_version = 'wxWidgets 3.0.5' to the end of /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/wx/__init__.py made it (start to) build, but this is obviously not a good solution. :)
