That part says it tries to download the Science Application cruncher from Einstein@Home, but there is none available for your platform.

As far as I know EAH doesn't allow its application to be Open Sourced, so you can't build one for FreeBSD. You either need another operating system, or try another project.

Edit: You can see which science applications EAH has available here on the Apps page.

It won't. As long as Einstein doesn't give out the source code for their Einstein & Albert science applications, adding an app_info.xml file won't work. For there is no app made for EAH for FreeBSD.

You can still as always check the science apps EAH makes here.
