Compiling Blender on FreeBSD?

Support Technical Support
1

There used to be a FreeBSD release of Blender, but I guess there wasn’t enough interest (or perhaps the person who maintained that release left the building, so to speak).

Anyway, I’m looking for any info on how to build native for FreeBSD (as opposed to running it under the Linux emulator).

FreeBSD has blender package, just run:
pkg install blender

EDIT:

This is native build

Has anyone done a native build on FreeBSD? Someone must have or the up-to-date package wouldn’t exist. Any pointers/advice on how to set up a build environment so I can compile/link/etc. on FreeBSD?
