There is a new bug [1] that mentions that KiCAD fails to build in Fedora rawhide.

The failure message is in the eeschema link step:

I looked at the symbols in libngspice.so.0.0.0.  In Fedora 33 we had:

00000000008ad320 B history_file

but in Fedora 34 (a.k.a. rawhide) we have:

                 U history_file

I don't see where this is a KiCAD problem, because I don't find any references to history_file in the KiCAD code.  Does anyone have any suggestions about this?
