Building on FreeBSD

Building on FreeBSD, much like Linux support, is made possible with cctools-port. To setup Procursus on FreeBSD

1. Install dependencies

   You can install dependencies with pkg

    sudo pkg autoconf automake bash cmake coreutils docbook-xsl dpkg fakeroot findutils gettext git gmake gnugrep gnupg gsed gtar libtool ncurses openssl patch perl5 pkgconf po4a python39 wget zstd
   

   You'll also need to install triehash

    wget -O triehash https://raw.githubusercontent.com/julian-klode/triehash/main/triehash.pl
    gsed -i 's|#!/usr/bin/perl -w|#!/usr/bin/env perl -w|g' triehash
    sudo mv triehash /usr/local/bin
   

2. Setup your iOS toolchain

   This script will setup your SDKs, cctools-port with your iOS toolchain, and other dependencies needed.

   To run the script

    bash procursus-utils-fbsd.sh
   

   It's recommended that you add this script to your shells' config file, so that it's sourced on every enviorment on login.

    echo "source procursus-utils-fbsd.sh" > .profile
   

   Then, reload your shell or reload your shells' config file.

    source procursus-utils-fbsd.sh
   

3. Clone the Procursus project

    git clone --recursive https://github.com/ProcursusTeam/Procursus.git
   

4. Build!

   To check whether you did everything correctly, attempt to build bash. Checkout the Build options page to see what valid options can be passed

    make bash [OPTIONS]
   

   If the build is successful, congrats!. You should now be able to compile packages from Procursus.

   Similar to other supported platforms, it's likely that some packages (particularly those that need Go, Python, and/or NodeJS) will fail to compile. You'll need a macOS build system if this is the case.
