As far as I can see, all dependencies have either been released in the main portage tree, or have blocking bugs open[2][3][4]. To develop the re-adding of the package further, I'd like to discuss the possibility of adding a USE_EXPAND variable called FREECAD_MODULES as noted in profiles/base/make.defaults. Rationale ======= FreeCAD has a modular design of different so-called workspaces. This enables the program to be built for the particular purposes of i.e. architectural CAD, engineering CAD, FEM, ship design and even raytracing or robot simulation. Those workspaces can, to some extent, be built independently of each other. They are dependant on some basic modules which serve as the core engine of the program. To give the user the possibility to build FreeCAD depending on it's needs, the FREECAD_MODULES should be used. Currently the variable has ~40 modules defined. For a complete list, I'd like to refer to the ebuild in my overlay. I'm open for discussion on the list of modules, it might be possible, that some of them are better placed in USE flags. I hope, this variable get's an approval from the devs. I personally found the alternative, to use a whole lot of USE flags less elegant than this solution. Thank you for your time! I'm happy for any feedback I'll receive on this topic.

Hello Gentoo devs,

I hav= e been maintaining the Qt5 updated media-gfx/freecad-0.18* for some time in= my overlay[1]. As far as I can see, all dependencies have either been rele= ased in the main portage tree, or have blocking bugs open[2][3][4].

To develop the re-adding of the package further, I'd = like to discuss the possibility of adding a USE_EXPAND variable called FREE= CAD_MODULES as noted in profiles/base/make.defaults.


Rationale
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
FreeC= AD has a modular design of different so-called workspaces. This enables the= program to be built for the particular purposes of i.e. architectural CAD,= engineering CAD, FEM, ship design and even raytracing or robot simulation.= Those workspaces can, to some extent, be built independently of each other= . They are dependant on some basic modules which serve as the core engine o= f the program.

To give the user the possibility to= build FreeCAD depending on it's needs, the FREECAD_MODULES should be u= sed.

Currently the variable has ~40 modules define= d. For a complete list, I'd like to refer to the ebuild in my overlay. = I'm open for discussion on the list of modules, it might be possible, t= hat some of them are better placed in USE flags.

I= hope, this variable get's an approval from the devs. I personally foun= d the alternative, to use a whole lot of USE flags less elegant than this s= olution.

Thank you for your time! I'm happy fo= r any feedback I'll receive on this topic.
