Comment:
~The grass package held things back six months ago, otherwise everything looked good.~

~I've given it another try, but it doesn't look hopeful: Python 3.10 + wxPython < 4.1 just doesn't seem to work. I've used grass-7.8.7RC1, which contains a workaround for a [wxPython issue](https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/issues/1971) as well as fixes related to Python 3.10.~
~I've also backported patches from wxPython 4.1 to 4.0.7 (following Fedora [here](https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-wxpython4/c/f5471fb86aaae46a686b85c654fcbb98516355e6?branch=rawhide), [here](https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-wxpython4/c/f55a17c2d3b336c82fb44f7816ec63219847f4cc?branch=rawhide), and [here](https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-wxpython4/c/1d5fd72dff63d62dd19b77e489d4115245d4d453?branch=rawhide))~

~With these changes the grass gui still doesn't work, and it looks like it is simply [not feasible with wxPython 4.0](https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/issues/2019). I've included the grass and wxPython4 commits hoping someone can sanity-check this.~

~If there's no progress with grass, I propose to either:~

~1. Include 7.8.7RC1 as is: the --text mode is functional (I think, I rarely use grass), and since the curently packaged grass gui doesn't work either it's not a regression afaict.~
~2. Remove the grass package.~

~In both cases the wxPython4 update can be left out -- unless these Python 3.10-related patches are helpful in other places?~

Edit: I've simplified the PR by only rebuilding the current version of grass, and omitting libspatialite/libkml/libgttopo for a separate PR. Grass looks as functional as before.
