Before installing Netdata, we need to install some dependencies that are required for Netdata to work correctly. We can install all dependencies using the following command:
pkg install -y autoconf automake pkgconf python3 libuuid libuv libxml2 libjansson libmnl libgcrypt
After running the above command, all the required dependencies will be installed on FreeBSD.
