Re: [SOLVED] FreeCAD

Hello:

... upgraded from Daedalus to Excalibur but now I cannot install ...

Devuan Excalibur is a testing/in development version of Devuan, the equivalent (sans systemd) of Debian Trixie.

That is surely the reason you are having issues with installing FreeCAD.
I am assuming that FreeCAD worked properly under Devuan Daedalus, yes?

- testing is where the next stable suite is developed. Software is usually more up-to-date but there may still
be issues. testing becomes stable “when it is ready”.

If FreeCAD is essential to you, you may want to consider rolling back to the stable version of Devuan (ie: Daedalus) you were using.

PLEASE HELP ME!

Now, now ...
No need to scream and/or plead to get help here. 8^)

Best,

A.

Re: [SOLVED] FreeCAD

Solved by itself
just simply install the occ-misc package from the daedalus repository (7.6.3+dfsg1-7)

apt -t daedalus installs occt-misc
