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.

kicad-library-nightly should be an optional dependency. Since I do library development, I maintain my own fork of the official libraries.
