There was a change of OCCT licence for version 6.7.0. It's LGPL + additional clause. The full text is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing/Open_CASCADE_Technology_Public_Lice... The additional clause:
Open CASCADE Exception (version 1.0) to GNU LGPL version 2.1.
The object code (i.e. not a source) form of a "work that uses the Library" can incorporate material from a header file that is part of the Library. As a special exception to the GNU Lesser General Public License version 2.1, you may distribute such object code incorporating material from header files provided with the Open CASCADE Technology libraries (including code of CDL generic classes) under terms of your choice, provided that you give prominent notice in supporting documentation to this code that it makes use of or is based on facilities provided by the Open CASCADE Technology software.
Is it a show stopper for fedora?
The LGPL license + exception is fine for Fedora. I believe opencascade under this license has been part of Fedora since 2019.
Thanks, Tom

Thank you very much for the clarification! I need to find it now :-) I think we have OCE (OPENCASCADE Community Edition) in the repos, but not OCCT.
Thanks, Przemo

I think we have both. Look at the OCE-draw and opencascade-draw packages.

IIRC the opencascade package should supersede OCE at some point as OCE isn't developed any more.
