to shorten the story, I can use any existing old version of KiCad 5.1.9
.10 and also .99 together with an updated package libngspice to
pre-master 35 of ngspice within a Debian testing. Al my testing did
happen on Debian testing.

I could also configure, built and use successful some old tree of KiCad
5.99 to together with a new library of libngspice.so.0.0.1.

The current HEAD (4633840) is able to get a target built configured, but
breaks later with some non libngspice related failure.

The current HEAD in branch 5.1. is getting configured successful but is
failing while compiling with this error message with then updated
packages of libngspice0 and libngspice0-dev:

Looks currently to me if something needs to get cherry picked from
master into 5.1. At least I can remembering that some fixing around this
was already happen in the past.
