At the moment we have the 18.5 version of freecad available.
Surprising or not, I was the guy who updated it to that version (and fixed the package because it wasn't even working) and I have bad news for you.
Freecad is very hard to compile. It has tons of dependencies and all of them require special effort (some are broken, have broken compilation tools...).
Maybe they changed that in the new version but... I don't think so.
I spent a hella lot of time trying to fix it.
I will take a look to the Nix package and try to convert it to Guix but it will take time.
If anyone is interested on taking a look...

I can (try to) answer every single question you have so please, don't be shy.
