Swiftly for FreeBSD?

[nreilly]

Will swiftly be made available for FreeBSD with Swift 6.2? I don't see it on Swift on FreeBSD so I thought I would ask optimistically.🤞

I tried to build swiftly with swift build on FreeBSD.

The result was a failure. Here is the log.

At least, swift-log, swift-nio, and swift-system will need to support FreeBSD first.

My environment:

$ uname -a
FreeBSD Coconut-rhinoceros-beetle 15.0-BETA4 FreeBSD 15.0-BETA4 releng/15.0-n280841-a7707f2a3bf4 GENERIC amd64
$ swift --version
Swift version 6.3-dev (LLVM bff1370bd79c983, Swift 57cf4ce563f700b)

Swift toolchain is from https://forums.swift.org/t/swift-on-freebsd-preview/83064.

I was able to progress a little further by specifying swift-log to use branch: "main". Now that I can get past swift-log compilation issues, I'm now facing similar lock issues in https://github.com/apple/swift-distributed-tracing. I've created an issue for this: apple/swift-distributed-tracing#209

#565 is making progress
