Description

Coming from EmbarkStudios/crash-handling#108 (comment)

FreeBSD support must be added first to the minidump-writer crate. There's nothing at the moment but part of the reason why we started that crate, using it to replace Breakpad, is that we wanted to make it easier to add minidump generation for BSDs. I haven't looked into how much work that's going to be, but it should be given that FreeBSD has ptrace() it might not be too much work. FYI I don't have any spare cycles for it, but I'm very happy to mentor, review and merge contributions if someone has them.

The FreeBSD port of zed editor is stuck at v0.198.6 due to this issue:

Committer's Note: The port is at version 0.198.6, whereas the latest version is 0.212.5. Later versions than 0.198.6 depend on "crash-handler" crate, which does not currently support FreeBSD.
