Installing FreeCAD from the repositories gives you a couple silly options. Directly installing gets you a seriously outdated version and installing a FLATPAK which seems to be rather broken.
So, let's try building it from source.
(Based on: FreeCAD Documentation / Compile on Linux)
The required tools:
sudo apt install git cmake
Get the source:
Note: This builds a non-stable version. (Whatever state the code is currently in...)
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD.git freecad-source
or maybe:
Note: This should build a stable version. (You can change branch to match current stable version...)
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD.git --branch releases/FreeCAD-1-0 freecad-source
The prerequisites:
sudo apt install cmake cmake-gui libboost-date-time-dev libboost-dev libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-graph-dev libboost-iostreams-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-python-dev libboost-regex-dev libboost-serialization-dev libboost-thread-dev libcoin-dev libeigen3-dev libgts-bin libgts-dev libkdtree++-dev libmedc-dev libocct-data-exchange-dev libocct-ocaf-dev libocct-visualization-dev libopencv-dev libproj-dev libpyside2-dev libqt5opengl5-dev libqt5svg5-dev qtwebengine5-dev libqt5x11extras5-dev libqt5xmlpatterns5-dev libshiboken2-dev libspnav-dev libvtk9-dev libx11-dev libxerces-c-dev libzipios++-dev occt-draw pyside2-tools python3-dev python3-matplotlib python3-packaging python3-pivy python3-ply python3-pyside2.qtcore python3-pyside2.qtgui python3-pyside2.qtsvg python3-pyside2.qtwidgets python3-pyside2.qtnetwork python3-pyside2.qtwebengine python3-pyside2.qtwebenginecore python3-pyside2.qtwebenginewidgets python3-pyside2.qtwebchannel python3-markdown python3-git qtbase5-dev qttools5-dev swig libyaml-cpp-dev python3-pybind11
Notes:
- libvtk9-dev is a moving target. (The official instructions listed libvtk7-dev which doesn't exist in Debian 12...)
- python3-pybind11 wasn't even listed in the official instructions.
- python3-pyside2uic WAS listed, but doesn't exist & isn't required.
Set it up:
cd freecad-source/mkdir buildcd buildcmake ../
Build it:
make -j$(nproc --ignore=2)
Install it:
sudo make install
