I noticed because PostGIS is affected via postgis B-D -> libsfcgal-dev
-> libsfcgal-osg1 -> libopenscenegraph100v5 -> libcoin80v5. Looking at
https://udd.debian.org/cgi-bin/autoremovals.cgi there's quite a few
packages depending on coin3. So the question whether this affects
freecad only or more packages is making quite a difference.

Do you have a recipe on how to reproduce the bug with freecad from
experimental?
