ack.
The current opencascade licensing scheme is incompatible with GPL.
Because of this, freecad was removed from Debian repositories just
before wheezy got stable.

I searched a bit in opencascade forums. The latest update from
opencascade officials seems to be this note in February 2012:
	http://dev.opencascade.org/index.php?q=3Dnode/31

"... the decision to relicense OCCT is postponed for several months."
