This is of course based on published above excellent guide. Thanks to The Madhatter.
However, instead of all that, now one can simply do this:
cd /usr/ports/net-p2p/bitcoin; make install clean; rehash
you will even have a chance to select/deselect GUI and upnp stuff.

Great! I'd like to see this good work make it back into mainline bitcoin; please talk with the other improve-the-build-process efforts and submit some patches.
Here is the complete makefile.unix that I used to build Bitcoin 0.3.19 on FreeBSD-8.1-RELEASE/amd64:
You'll need to install the following from ports:
gmake
boost-all
db47 (you can use db48, but you'll have to change the makefile a bit)
openssl (from ports works best)
After you drop in this makefile.unix file, just run "gmake -f makefile.unix bitcoind" and you'll have a "bitcoind" binary.
Edit: If you want the GUI you'll need to install "x11-toolkits/gtk20" from ports, and install wxwidgets 2.9 from source (it's not in the ports tree). Use the makefile above and run "gmake -f makefile.unix bitcoin".

Edit: If you want the GUI you'll need to install "x11-toolkits/gtk20" from ports, and install wxwidgets 2.9 from source (it's not in the ports tree). Use the makefile above and run "gmake -f makefile.unix bitcoin".
It seems that the original makefile.unix won't work as-is for most folks.
In my case, I had to use the output of `wx-config --cflags` and `wx-config --libs` to make the build work on a ubuntu hardy box (thanks to Diablo-3D for pointing me in the right direction.)
Are we okay with having a few build recipes hanging around old forum posts, or should there be an attempt at foolproofing the build process a bit?
Maybe some light autoconf/automake use would help here.

Compiling it on FreeBSD is easier now. You just have to enable a define, adjust some library/include paths, and it compiles and runs great.
Could you (or someone else) explain that a bit further? I've been trying to get 0.3.19 it to compile on FBSD for about half an hour now with no success.
Each time I am close to submitting a port, the codebase/makefiles change. I'm waiting until the development of Bitcoin dies down a tad before I work on the port again.

Good evening,
Thank you for your howto, it allows me to prepare a FreeBSD port for Bitcoin.

Any status on the FreeBSD port?
Thanks for this HOWTO. Any ideas on the best way to run bitcoind as a daemon on the system?
I didn't forget to attach it. Look again.
Good evening,
Thank you for your howto, it allows me to prepare a FreeBSD port for Bitcoin.
Could you attach makefile.unix.patch.txt your patch? It seems you forgot it.

Step 1:
Install the following from the ports tree:
x11-toolkits/gtk20
devel/boost-all
devel/gmake
databases/db48
Step 2:
Install wxWidgets 2.9 from source. The ports version won't work.
You can get 2.9 here: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wxwindows/wxWidgets-2.9.0.tar.bz2
Step 3:
Apply the attached patch to the "makefile.unix" file.
cd ~/bitcoin-0.3/src/
patch < makefile.unix.patch.txt
Step 4:
Tweak any compiler options in makefile.unix. (See the CFLAGS line). The default options are the options I use on my machines. They are: "-O3 -march=nocona -fstack-protector". Be sure to set your 'march' at the very least.
Step 5:
Build with:
gmake -f makefile.unix bitcoind
And enjoy!
$ cat ~/.bitcoin/debug.log |grep "Bitcoin version"
Bitcoin version 0.3.0 beta, OS version FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE-p3 amd64
$
And what about performance? It's insanely great on FreeBSD. Especially with the ULE scheduler.
