In this regard I have opened up a request to provide a FreeBSD target for the openSUSE Build Service. It allows users to compile any software found on the internet in a clean development environment, make it available to other users and provide updates regularely by automatic re-compiling. I believe that would ease porting software that is already available for Linux to FreeBSD considerably. vote for it if you are interested: https://features.opensuse.org/308617
