Comment (by ryandesign):

 Yes, we should [ticket:69647 upgrade to kicad 8], but an
 [https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/22894 update to kicad 8]
 was submitted and languished for awhile before being closed without being
 accepted. I [changeset:d267a1cb353b4d144987cc0915e7da582dedd126/macports-
 ports updated the port to the latest version of 7] instead. Updating to
 kicad 8, and even [ticket:69869 getting kicad 7 working], is difficult in
 part because upstream only supports using their fork of wxWidgets, not the
 standard wxWidgets we have in MacPorts, and in part because their software
 appears to have a design flaw that makes it not work on Intel Macs running
 macOS 10.x. The last time I attempted to communicate with the developers
 of kicad they were unhelpful and unfriendly so I won't be communicating
 with them again and I don't know if anybody else has reported the design
 flaw to them.
