Kicad no longer works with OpenGL acceleration for rendering. Only able to work with the extremely slow “fall-back graphics“.

Kicad unable to use OpenGL after recent update

Hello after updating my 2 systems that was released recently on the stable, Kicad is unable to use OpenGL for rendering. I do not have any other graphics issues on my system, all games and other graphics apps are working fine. I have this issue on both my desktop (Nvidia GPU) and my laptop (Intel GPU). I suspect something went wrong in WXwidgets (also updated in the update) as this is the library Kicad uses to render graphics.
