For what it's worth, kicad seems to work for me in a container. I'm using Guix System with GNOME (guix 4716cea):

__________
guix shell kicad -E "^DISPLAY$" -E "^XAUTHORITY$" --expose="$XAUTHORITY" --expose=/tmp/.X11-unix/ --expose=$HOME/.Xauthority --expose=/etc/machine-id --expose=$HOME/Descargas --expose=/tmp/dbus-fnAz1hb4to
‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾

The command above is what I use to try out an application I'm developing (GTK 4). You should at least change the values to the last two "--expose".
