Bug#622213: freecad: Please package new upstream version 0.11

[Yorik van Havre]

Hi all,
Actually the FreeCAD 0.11 stable release is almost ready, I think
Werner will tell you guys about it in a couple of days...

BW several of the FTBFS bugs that are currently reported will be
solved with this release (OpenCasCade6.5, Boost Filesystem3, etc...)

A couple of extra modules have been removed from that release too
(mainly to simplify license issues), so hopefully it'll be easier than what
you saw, Teemu...

Cheers
