KiCad is incompatible with swig 4.4. Add a restriction to the swig dependency for now, to use 4.3.1.

The binary repo has been repaired and is and should remain up to date. Sorry for neglecting it everyone.
The binary repo seems abandoned, the latest nightly there is 7.99.
Seems like build deps is missing: 'nng'
Hi, this package hasn't been building for a while, applying the attached patch fixes that.

Hello, in the line 74 the PKGBUILD contains -e 's/^Icon=\(.*\)$/Icon=\1-nightly/g' \ that changes the icon from program to program-nightly, since there are no nigthly icons anymore I think we can remove that line to have the correct icons on the Desktop entries. *Edit: the exception is kicad-nightly and could be changed outside the loop.
I would greatly appreciate a version of this package that tracks the stable Kicad 7.0 branch instead of the development branch. The 7.0 branch has already a number of fixes that will likely end up in the next stable release. This would be particularly helpful at this time, given that version 7 is still new and rapidly stabilizing."

Thank you to all those who've made us aware of some recent build system changes that broke things - we'll work on a patch and issue corrected files in the next day or two. Apologies for being slow to get back to this.

benx45h: There are two major differences between the two packages.
The first is that this one isn't just "whatever the latest is in Git", but rather is pinned to a particular commit each day so as to aid reproducability and try and help guarantee a usable build each update
The second is that kicad-git cannot be installed along side kicad, which means if you want to use both a kicad-git nightly build and stable on the same machine, it's just not possible.. This package on the other hand is designed to be side-by-side installed so suffixes on -nightly and puts both config and binaries in a different location to allow all this to work seamlessly.
