  • OS: FreeBSD
  • Version of IPFS Desktop: 0.16.1

Describe the bug
FreeBSD package is labelled as "linux", and install yields pkg: wrong architecture: Linux:5:x86:64 instead of FreeBSD:13:amd64. I noticed the package name also includes "linux" in it.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Download the "FreeBSD" package here
  2. pkg add ./ipfs-desktop-0.16.1-linux-x64.freebsd

Expected behavior
Package installs.

Additional context
Discovered in this thread.

I extracted the archive, and it really does look like a Linux binary, not a FreeBSD binary:

$ file ipfs-desktop 
ipfs-desktop: ELF 64-bit LSB pie executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, BuildID[sha1]=8e2a5573ce751fd59276672df63d46e4158cac08, not stripped

I believe this is a binary optimized for Linux interop layer provided by FreeBSD:
https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/linuxemu/

Note that linux binary support needs to be enabled first:

By default, Linux® libraries are not installed and Linux® binary compatibility is not enabled. Linux® libraries can either be installed manually or from the FreeBSD Ports Collection.

I opened #1878 to clarify this requirement.
Lmk if this solves the issue.
