Hi, Pivy has been packaged (see git.debian.org), and uploaded to NEW but had some problems which will be fixed next week. As for the depends vs. recommends: Since freecad does run without pivy and you can use it to view CAD models, for example, I don't think upgrading the dependency is needed. Apt will automatically install all available recommended packages so the drafting module will soon start to work out of the box.
