Hi,

I would change things in a way that the builtin CMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET 
variable of CMake is used everywhere and that it has to be set during 
configuration.
So, everybody can set things as he/she wants…

The only thing that everyone has to take care is that all dependencies are 
built wit matching settings… but that’s something that cannot be tackled by 
KiCad build process anyway.


Regards,
Bernhard
