KiCad is now on 6.0.10 and a 7 is probably published next month.

KiCad has included the locales into the kicad repository and package itself.

The current source code seems to use new OCC api - so I commented it out and it compiles.

wxwidgets was compiled with the package.yml provided by T10368.

I can compile the other package by bumping the version number. No additional work needed.
