Hi Alejandro,

as pointed out, this is normal until the RC bug of the reverse dependency will
be fixed. As it's an orphaned package, this might take a while, but I'm having
it on my backlog. I'm going to close your bug, but that does not mean it won't
be fixed.

I mark the FTBFS bug from med-fichier affecting freecad,
this should make things clearer for the causal viewer of the BTS.

Cheers,
tobi
