I am getting this warning:

┌ Warning: Circular dependency detected.
│ Precompilation will be skipped for dependencies in this cycle:
│  ┌ Symbolics → SymbolicsPreallocationToolsExt
│  └─ Symbolics → SymbolicsForwardDiffExt
│ Precompilation will also be skipped for the following, which depend on the above cycle:
│   ModelingToolkit
│   KiteModels
│   ModelingToolkit → MTKChainRulesCoreExt

when installing/ updating KiteModels.jl (main branch) using Julia 1.10.

What could be the reason?

see Extension not loaded if trigger is a strong dependency [on 1.10] · Issue #55723 · JuliaLang/julia · GitHub. TLDR is that Julia 1.10 has a bug with package extensions.

So that is a bug in 1.10 that will not be fixed?

yeah.
