Next.js 14 apps on FreeBSD: @next/swc-freebsd-x64 package is missing/not downloaded

[wekinglypigs]

Summary

When I make a minimal app on FreeBSD with (for example) npx create-next-app -e reproduction-template and try to npm run dev or npm run build it fails to download swc-freebsd-x64 package with status 404. Here is some output including the error message:

% npm run dev

> dev
> next dev

   - Next.js 14.0.5-canary.12
   - Local:        http://localhost:3000

   Downloading swc package @next/swc-freebsd-x64...
 -¨¯ Failed to download swc package from https://registry.npmjs.org/@next/swc-freebsd-x64/-/swc-freebsd-x64-14.0.5-canary.12.tgz
Error: request failed with status 404

If I run npm show @next/swc-freebsd-x64 versions there are many versions available (through 13.2.5) but no later (14.0) versions. How to fix this, will current versions be provided?

Additional information

OS: FreeBSD 14.0-RELEASE-p3 amd64
node: v20.8.1
npm: 10.2.0

Same here. Seems @next/swc-freebsd-x64 14.0.4 is missing in npm repo...

Thanks for any help to get support in FreeBSD 14

Encountering the same thing. Is FreeBSD not supported any more? Can someone take a look? @Brooooooklyn?

Same here on FreeBSD 14.1-STABLE stable/14-n268370-b37a6d41a046 GENERIC amd64.

I was able to work around this on FreeBSD 13.3 by following the instructions here:

https://nextjs.org/docs/messages/failed-loading-swc

All it required was to create .babelrc:

{
  "presets": ["next/babel"]
}

It does sound like compilation will be slower, but that's better than being blocked.

Fallback to Babel is apparently not an option with Next.js v15, and installing @next/swc-freebsd-x64 does not help. I now get segfaults when trying to build my app:

$ pnpm run build
