 committers/kicad/product/view/head:/patches/wxwidgets-3.0.2_macosx_magnify_event.patch

 committers/kicad/product/view/head:/patches/wxpython-3.0.0_macosx_multiarch.patch

 product-
 committers/kicad/product/view/head:/patches/wxpython-3.0.0_macosx.patch
 wxpython-3.0.0_macosx.patch]
   - iI replaces carbon with cocoa at some places and fixes overlays (I
 don't completely understand it)
   - The patch for wxPython is slightly different from the patch for
 wxWidgets (why?)
   - Is there any ticket on the wxWidgets tracker about this issue?
 - [http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~kicad-product-
 committers/kicad/product/view/head:/patches/wxwidgets-3.0.0_macosx_bug_15908.patch

   - It avoids running `change-install-names`
   - Similar patch was already in MacPorts in the past; see also
 http://trac.wxwidgets.org/ticket/15452
   - Most likely this is some weird practice of wxWidgets build system, but
 wxWidgets should work fine for us either with the patch or without
 - [http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~kicad-product-
 committers/kicad/product/view/head:/patches/wxwidgets-3.0.2_macosx_data_view_ctrl.patch

   - Why exactly is this needed and not included upstream?
   - Should the patch only be applied to Yosemite (and El Capitan) or to
 all versions?

 packaging/files alternative link] with patches and build scripts.
