Hi Anton,
thanks for doing this.

However, is the bug completely fixed?

What about those files included in freecad and licensed under the terms
of the GNU GPL v2 or later? There seem to still be a number of such
files in the package.
If these files are linked with or incorporated into the program, the
Open CASCADE GPL-incompatibility is still an issue.

According to the current debian/copyright file, the GPL-licensed files
are:

Files: m4/*       (I suppose those are m4 macros used only during the
                   configuration step of the build process: if this is
                   the case, they should not pose problems)

Files: src/Mod/Draft/*

Files: src/Mod/Draft/draftlibs/dxf*

Files: src/Mod/Draft/importAirfoilDAT.py

Files: src/Mod/Sketcher/App/sketchflat/*   (these files are GPL-3+)

Files: src/Mod/Part/MakeBottle.py src/Tools/*


Are these files linked with or incorporated into any program that links
with Open CASCADE?
Please clarify.

Thanks for your time.
