		+	== Building Mattermost plugins for FreeBSD ==
		+
		+	The Mattermost plugin marketplace does not work in FreeBSD. Every plugin needs to be manually built and installed. Add the following to the Makefile next to similar code:
		+
		+	cd server && env GOOS=freebsd GOARCH=amd64 $(GO) build $(GO_BUILD_FLAGS) -o dist/plugin-freebsd-amd64;
		+
		+	Add the following to plugin.json next to similar code under "server" and then "executables":
		+
		+	"freebsd-amd64": "server/dist/plugin-freebsd-amd64",
		+
		+	If the plugin.json edit did not work, replace whole "server" section with the following:
		+
		+	"server": {
		+	"executable": "server/dist/plugin-freebsd-amd64"
		+	},
