Please help me build KiCad 9.0 from the latest source files. When building vcpkg packages, the process ends with the errors "error: https://sourceforge.net/projects/ngspice/files/ng-spice-rework/45.2/ngspice-45.2.tar.gz/download: failed: status code 404" I also reported an issue, but no one is responding to it. Thank you.

I have fixed the error by adding a ng-spice port

You can either checkout both the vcpkg.json and vcpkg-configuration.json  from our fork, or reuse the github runner to build KiCad 9.0 from the latest source files
