I added webkit2gtk as hard dependency of wxWidget since i need it to 
build poedit.

You can skip installing webkit2gtk and change DwxUSE_WEBVIEW_WEBKIT=ON 
into DwxUSE_WEBVIEW_WEBKIT=OFF and that should work, but you won't get 
webkit engine in wxWidgets

I don't know if this will impact kicad or not, but my guess is that 
kicad will build just fine without this feature.
