I was having the same issue compiling gomd under freebsd 10. I found a solution that works for me and opened an issue szferi/gomdb#28.

My output now looks like this:

ok      github.com/influxdb/influxdb/datastore  0.034s
ok      github.com/influxdb/influxdb/engine     0.015s
FAIL    github.com/influxdb/influxdb/parser [build failed]
ok      github.com/influxdb/influxdb/protocol   0.003s
ok      github.com/influxdb/influxdb/wal        15.130s

Everything seems to be fine, except for the influxdb parser. Go throws ugly stacktraces at me:

panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference
[signal 0xb code=0x1 addr=0x0 pc=0x414272]

No idea how to fix this.

Hi, I'm working on FreeBSD port for InfluxDB - current status - compile/install/works, but depends on ports not included in official FreeBSD repo. The port do not compile in poudriere and depends on clang!

Dependency ports are available here - https://github.com/cheffo/FreeBSD-Ports/
