Did not see how to access the Addons Manager. And it is gone from the Tools menu.
The Part-O-Magic WB which was installed via the Addons Manager is also gone.

I was pointing it more as a place where to report such problems since he is actively modifying things and showing them there so if there are problems it looks like the proper place to address them.

No, please don't. that is the Announcements forum, its supposed to be only for announcements of new features. Further development and continued discussion is supposed to be moved to a new forum and topic.

For me it is still there under the tools menu, in my FreeCAD from the daily PPA.

My bad, but the thread looked like it was ok to test the new functionality/give suggestions/review changes/report problems...

Do you have Report view enabled? View/Panels/Report view.
Does it show any errors when Freecad starts?

If you can't find it in Tools, open Macro -> Macros -> look for Addons button.

Looks like a self compiled build :?:
If that's correct, are you sure this cmake flag is set?

Yes, self-compiled.
Thanks, I think that will do it. Will try again.
