How on earth is kicad installed from Debian stable (bookworm)?! The debian repositories have a three year old version (6). The kicad "download" page just says "apt install kicad", there's no info on what repository to use/add to sources.list from Kicad!

I've got it installed on a kubuntu machine, that uses a ppa something repository peculiar to kubuntu. No help there.

Can't download from kicad?

Then there's a big red warning about ditching Wayland because it's so buggy (kicad uses in *hard*).

Things are not good in the OSS world. What stupid bickering this X vs Wayland crap is.
