Hi Steve,

For those who don't follow the Fedora development list, i.e. most
everyone :-), I've attached two emails related to wxWidgets and
wxPython. It looks like we will soon have wxWidgets/wxPython 3.2.0
in Rawhide.
This change won't apply to the older Fedora releases, so if we want
to keep the nightlies available for Fedora 35 and 36 (and I hope we
can), that will mean that we cannot completely eliminate the older wx
support from KiCad until F36 goes obsolete, some time around
mid-2023. But at least the Rawhide builds can switch soon.
Please let me know if that makes sense, or if there is a need to drop
wxWidgets/wxPython 3.0 sooner.
wxWidgets/wxPython 3.2.0 are not even in Debian unstable yet so I
wouldn't worry about dropping 3.0 any time soon.
Thanks, Wayne. I wanted to ask because Ian created an issue asking
Fedora to switch, so I wasn't sure how hot this was. I'll add it as it
becomes available in the various Fedora releases.

For older versions of KiCad, it might be prudent to stick with what we
know versus what we don't know. I know 3.2 resolves some issues but
it's those unknown issues that I would like to avoid until version 7 is
released.
