Please note that freecad as well as most other packages have moved on to pyside6. There is only one reverse dep left: email-reminder, which already has an upstream patch to move to pyside6. So pyside2 should be removed from forky.
[Bastian Germann] will cause freecad to be removed from testing, which confuses me. Can you explain what you mean by "freecad as well as most other packages have moved on to pyside6". What you descrive do not appear to have happened yet.
See the bug that is blocking this bug. freecad was fixed in Debian with a "team" upload but that was reverted by its primary maintainer. email-reminder is fixed now, so it's only freecad that is blocking the removal of pyside2. https://bugs.debian.org/1129099 Thank you, Jeremy Bícha
pyside6 is currently RC buggy, it causes freecad to FTBFS. see bug #1131536 Once that has been fixed, I'm going to give it another stab to see if the issues that I've experienced with the previous attempt to QT6 have been solved.
[Tobias Frost] How did your testing go. FreeCAD was just removed from testing due to this wishlist issue and the underlying state of byside2 tracked in #1129099. Perhaps the severity of this issue should be raised to RC?
