FreeBSD support / error in Grafana installing Clickhouse data source plugin, "Plugin failed to start"

[benbenik]

What happened:
Grafana behaviour on FreeBSD:
Install Clickhouse as a plugin in Grafana to be used as data source. After installation red error "Plugin failed to start".

What you expected to happen:
Expected behaviour in Grafana: Able to install Clickhouse data source plugin and configure a Clickhouse data source in Grafana.
Clickhouse itself is available on FreeBSD; it would be productive to be able to use the Clickhouse data source in Grafana on FreeBSD.

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):
Install Clickhouse as a plugin in Grafana to be used as data source.

By:
In left menu:
Administration > PLugin and data > Plugins
Choose: Clickhouse

Or (same result):
In left menu:
Connections > Add new connection:
Scroll down to bottom, click:
Find more datasource plugins
Choose: Clickhouse

Anything else we need to know?:
Or, maybe I am missing something? gpx_clickhouse_freebsd_amd64 where art thou?

Hey @benbenik, I see you opened a similar issue here. I'm going to close this as it's a duplicate of that, which is in turn a duplicate of this.
