bug#54011: FreeCAD: Unable to import STEP files

[Jacob Hrbek]

Both of those worked for me before the update using this manifest:

  #!/usr/bin/env -S guix shell -m
  !#

  ;;; Recipe to provide GNU Emacs through Guix

  (use-modules
      (guix channels))

  ;; DNR-CI(Krey): Needs handling to keep the hash up-to-date
  (list (channel
         (name 'guix)
          (url "https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git";)
          (commit
            "f1bfd9f1948a5ff336d737c0614b9a30c2bb3097")
          (introduction
            (make-channel-introduction
              "9edb3f66fd807b096b48283debdcddccfea34bad"
              (openpgp-fingerprint
                "BBB0 2DDF 2CEA F6A8 0D1D  E643 A2A0 6DF2 A33A 54FA")))))

  (specifications->manifest
      (list
        "freecad"
        ;; DEP(Krey): Used for working with openscad designs
        "openscad"
        ;; DEP(Krey): Required for working with FEM workbench
        "gmsh"))

That patch seems to have broken something in FreeCAD as i have issues with 
fonts^ and keybinds:

To reproduce:
a) Run `guix shell freecad -- FreeCAD` and notice that the texts are missing on 
the title page
b) Open a new project
1. Part Design workbench
*
2. Tasks and create a new body
*
3. Create a sketch
*
4. In a sketch environment use `R`-key and notice that it no longer works to 
make a rectangle

On my machine, the start page was not displayed properly even before the
patch for STEP files, so it's probably a different issue with HTML rendering.

There are indeed no keyboard shortcuts by default for creating cercles,
rectangles, etc. in part design. But you can still configure them in
"Tools -> Customize -> Keyboard -> Sketcher".
Maybe these shortcuts are missing because the version we are currently
using is not an official release (because of compatibility issues with
boost, opencascade-occt and vtk) and there's a bug in it, or maybe
upstream decided not to set them by default anymore...
