The Pad has AlongSketchNormal=False and no ReferenceAxis. Alas, fixing these doesn't help. There are more peculiarities with the material properties. So there may be an overall problem with the creation of the pad.
@sdooweloc, please attach your full FreeCAD info as described in the IMPORTANT forum rules linked above.

It was a package recommended to me because it fixes things that the official one didnt supposedly. Should I not be using it? Maybe use the freecad-git instead?

I use AUR freecad-git on Manjaro (which is essentially Arch). It runs fine. Whether it fixes your issue, I do not know.
