1. cmake scripts already work with wxwidgets, that was already done awhile
back. I've been building with MSVC for awhile



One dependency that'll need "porting" is ngspice.
But let me put this out there, does it make sense to leave ngspice to a
higher level distro and not built as part of kicad?
We've already had cases of repackaging Windows and macOS just to bump
ngspice versions up.
Why not make it standard baseline as part of kicad instead of allowing
versions to be mixed?
