Currently, kicad is marked brokem due to https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/18621 so there is no package in -current.
As it depends on Python, the lack of package will interfere with a regular update from 7.6 to 7.7 at releas, leaving a faorly broken system. I propose to allow packaging again to fix the update problem, but install the main binary wirh 0 permissions to avoid accidental use. OK? (Maybe ee could also advise kicad users to hold off on updating in release notes).
