Hi David! Apologies for taking this long to get a response. You're
almost there :)

Could you please edit the bug report to follow the Stable Release Update
template[1]? I'll be happy to sponsor these uploads after that.
(Unsubscribing the sponsors team for now.)

Thank you!

Title:
  Exception in pivy cast functions with Python 3.10 (upstream patches)

Status in pivy package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Before version 0.6.8, pivy had compatibility issues with Python 3.10,
  which led to crashes when using FreeCAD. These were resolved upstream:

  https://github.com/coin3d/pivy/pull/90
  https://github.com/coin3d/pivy/pull/91
  https://github.com/coin3d/pivy/pull/99

  The issues are affecting Ubuntu 22.04 (Jammy) and Ubuntu 22.10
  (Kinetic). Applying the relevant patches from the PRs above fixes
  this.

  
  I am attaching debdiffs for Jammy and Kinetic. The same changes are on a fork of the package source repo, on these branches:

  https://code.launchpad.net/~dpward/ubuntu/+source/pivy/+git/pivy/+ref/ubuntu/jammy-devel
  https://code.launchpad.net/~dpward/ubuntu/+source/pivy/+git/pivy/+ref/ubuntu/kinetic-devel

  Please let me know if these need adjusting, or if they need to be
  uploaded another way for review/merging.
