Description

Installing kicad on sequoia 15.1 fails due to opencascade build failure. Using MacBook Pro 2021 with Apple M1 Pro, sequoia 15.1 and Xcode 16.1 main.log file attached

Seems caused by:

Tested latest upstream release, 7.8.1. Tested on CI. Got same error cannot initialize in same source file StdPrs_BRepFont.cxx. Same error on CI OS 13, 14, and 15.
