Motivation for this change

Updating to the latest version. Some simplification has been possible as FreeCAD now includes XDG config files in its release.

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nix-review --run "nix-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Assured whether relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

This fails to open a new or existing cad file on non-NixOS (Ubuntu) with this error:

FreeCAD: gl.cpp:2389: const cc_glglue* cc_glglue_instance(int): Assertion `gi->versionstr && "could not call glGetString() -- no current GL context?"' failed.
/home/dev/.nix-profile/bin/nixGLNvidia: line 3:  8594 Aborted                 (core dumped) "$@"

Tried: nixGL and LD_LIBRARY_PATH settings.

This fails to open a new or existing cad file on non-NixOS (Ubuntu) with this error:

Hmm. I don't have an Ubuntu system to test on, but it does look like the error might have something to do with your video card (I'm guessing Nvidia?). FWIW I'm not seeing the error on my NixOS system with Intel HD 520 graphics.

@tomberek do you have another system to test this on? Alternatively, can you try doing a normal source build (outside of Nix) on the failing system?

Not sure how else to move this forward...

Notes:
  - boost_python patch has been removed as it's part of the new release.
  - XDG config files have been added as of 0.18 so it's no longer to
  generate the MIME and .desktop files manually.

I can't reproduce the GL error either (on NixOS). @tomberek Did you update nixGL? Does this error also happen with an ubuntu build of FreeCAD? This might just be an issue with the nvidia driver, if so this should be reported upstream.
