I'm trying to get a ruby app working on FreeBSD 12 but I seem to fail miserably.

I installed v8 via pkg install v8 and tried to install the libv8 gem via this command:

gem install libv8 -v '7.3.492.27.1' -- --with-system-v8

This seems to work fine until it calls gclient which refuses to run on FreeBSD with

KeyError: 'freebsd12'

I search a lot but could not find any solution to the problem. Is there any way to get libv8 working on FreeBSD?

Based on comments in this issue in libv8 repo there are no binary gems for FreeBSD after version 6.0.

You could try to build from source or use downgraded version
