<div> </div>
<div>I'm needing some features that are in FreeCAD 18.5 or later. What are the odds of seeing FreeCAD 19.2 or 20.1 in the focal-backports repository so those of us running Ubuntu LTS releases (and other distros based on Ubuntu LTS releases) can get an updated version through the backports repository?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I'm a FreeCAD user on Ubuntu 20.04LTS (by way of Linux Mint). Currently, the package in the Ubuntu Focal repositories is FreeCad version 18.4, and there's nothing in the focal-backports repository for a newer version. I do see 19.2 is in the jammy and kinetic repositories, and the current 20.1 version is in kinetic-proposed. Can either of these version s be put in focal-backports? That's what the backports repository is for. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>PS, if you need some testing (and have test scripts I can run or whatever), I might be able to help with that some. I'm a user, not a software developer, but I do have some technical experience, even in the software development arena (from long ago in a previous lifetime/career).</div>
