Freecad ports ends in error

[Marius Schamschula]

Christoph,

Freecad is currently broken!

As you found, Freecad 0.17 is looking for an older version of boost.

Further, Freecad 0.17 depends on Qt4, which is 32bit, and hence, not compatible with Catalina.

Among other things, Freecad 0.18.x is having problems with the demise of OpenGL on macOS.

Further, work needs to be done upgrading to Python 3.x, as Python 2.7 is about to be EOL. Unfortunately, there are some serious issues in this transition.
