>Description:
I received following answer (PR 106803):

> This is the correct behavior. By default, only the "OSIRISD" OPTION is
> enabled, which installs only the scan agent and its startup script. If
> you require other components, please build a package with different
> OPTIONS. I believe that the current default is correct, given that

According to "Host Integrity Monitoring Using Osiris and Samhain" from Brian Wotring osiris consists of THREE components:
1. scan agent
2. management console
3. cli

Other packaging systems like Debian have 3 packages available,
one for each component.

Why is this NOT possible in FreeBSD?

PS: Thanks for closing PR 106803 without considering my feedback!
