   On FreeBSD there is a Nginx port in the port-tree which is very straightforward to build (`make [config]; make install;`) and even easy to extend.
   The thing that slowed me to add nginx pagespeed to it, was this part from the official nginx-pagespeed *build* guide 👇 
   ```
   psol_url=https://dl.google.com/dl/page-speed/psol/${NPS_RELEASE_NUMBER}.tar.gz
   [ -e scripts/format_binary_url.sh ] && psol_url=$(scripts/format_binary_url.sh PSOL_BINARY_URL)
   wget ${psol_url}
   ```
   There are two problems with this (that I'm trying to solve 😃 😅 )
   
   1. We can't assume a Linux shared-object to work just straightforward in FreeBSD
   2. It's not nice to copy/use binaries in port-tree IMO, during build
   
   **I guess** the PSOL being copied is the shared-object being produced while building apache-pagespeed...
   If so we just can make the nginx depending on the apache's mod_pagepseed in FreeBSD and then copy the file and make the nginx-pagespeed built...
   
   It just depends on if my **guess** is right 😅
