Thanks for the clarification. I'll leave the downstream as is until v8.

Thanks for updating the nightlies. Just to clarify though, this change will not
be backported to v7, so you should keep the flag for the downstream v7 packages
until you rebase to v8 when it is released.

I'll change the fedora nightlies to match. I cannot update the downstream
packages until we spin a 7.0.2 with your changes.

I have just pushed a commit to the master branch (version 7.99) that
makes ngspice a required dependency for building KiCad, this means the previous
compile option of KICAD_SPICE is now never used (so it can be removed from any
build scripts/packaging scripts), and you will need to have the ngspice shared
library installed to build KiCad.
This was done since the simulator/spice integration part of KiCad has
seen a lot of development recently, and it is becoming a larger feature of the
schematic editor. Additionally, it turns out the build with spice disabled
(using KICAD_SPICE=OFF) was actually broken and wouldn't link eeschema properly
due to missing symbol definitions - so I don't foresee this change breaking any
existing build scripts people may have.
