[[FreeBSD]] is not a Linux distribution, but a version of [[BSD|Unix]] that it is very similar. Its [[ports collection|ports]] are analogous Gentoo's ebuilds. However, the project continuously builds pre-compiled binary packages for Tier-1 platforms such as [[x86]] and [[ARM]]. There are over 240 biological sciences applications among over 2,200 scientific applications and over 31,000 ports in general. New ports and updates are listed on the Fresh Ports<ref>[http://www.freshports.org/biology/ Fresh Ports]</ref> site.
; pkgsrc
The [[pkgsrc]] package manager, originally forked from [[FreeBSD ports]], is maintained by the [[NetBSD]] project, but aims to support all [[POSIX]]-compatible operating systems. It is well-tested on [[NetBSD]], many [[Linux]] distributions, [[macOS]], and [[SunOS]] derivatives. The collection contains over 19,000 packages in total, of which nearly 800 are in scientific categories, and over 60 are biology-related.
