nope.

I've also done a little bit of testing. The cmake snippet to find the
library needs also to look in /usr/lib/${CMAKE_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE} on
Debian systems once a package libngspice0{-dev} is alive and installed.
Currently it searches only in /usr/lib.
Also some more messages could be added like done for other libraries.

If no libngspice is found the confirgure run should exit and give up,
further compiling is useless.

Debian is trying to build packages for multiarch since 2011 and thus
needs to have installed the platform related libraries within
/usr/lib/$multiarchitecture e.g. /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu an an amd64
platform.

My skills on cmake are to poor to provide something useful here, so now
I just setup some symlinks from /u/l to /u/l/x86_64-linux-gnu on my
system and can build (and start) KiCad again.
