[Coordination] Ubuntu freecad-stable PPA update to 0.18

[kkremitzki]

OK, well I needed to do a new upload of OpenCASCADE anyway so I'll include that.

[kkremitzki]

Bah, uploaded a new version and I forgot to re-add the Conflicts:.

It's not too late to cancel the builds.

Nevermind, it is too late...

[kkremitzki]

Should be fixed now...

[NormandC]

Thanks Kurt, got both updates (FC & OCCT) tonight.

Kurt, it seems you didn't include the fix for the document icon? Or this build was only because of the new occt packages?

That's right, for both questions.

Would someone please post here when things are thought to be stable on ppa:freecad-maintainers/freecad-stable. I'm holding back on reporting trouble because there seems to be work in progress, but if it is thought to be working then I need to report more details. (Using Trusty on Ubunto 14.0 on Travis and serena/xenial on Mint 18.1 at home.)

FWIW regarding ppa:freecad-maintainers/freecad-stable and ppa:freecad-maintainers/freecad-daily

My assessment of the status (at 16:30 EDT May 2, 2019) is that freecad ( 0.18.1+dfsg1~201904300243~ubuntu16.04.1 ) and freecad-daily ( 0.18~rc+git201903142046~ubuntu16.04.1 ) are working with python 2 on xenial.

Neither freecad-python3 nor libfreecad-python3-0.18 are available for xenial on either ppa, so freecad and freecad-daily with python 3 are not working.

The details are in the builds at https://travis-ci.org/pdgilbert/EgFreeCAD, especial unfold the before_install sections. (If they don't unfold the result was empty.) Beware that the build site is a moving target, I am working on things.

As of a few hours ago, nothing was working on trusty. (There may be problems related to Travis' move 2 days ago to default xenial, see https://changelog.travis-ci.com/)

Trusty is EOL and Xenial's version of Qt is too old to support Python 3 builds for us.
