Hi John, It is good to hear that you have made such good progress on packaging FreeCAD.
> we would need to also package opencascade-occt I can help with this part. I am planning to introduce the opencascade- occt package in order to upgrade gmsh, which also depends on OpenCASCADE. All being well, I should be able to start on this within the next two weeks. I will update this thread when the package is ready. Best regards, Paul.
