--- Comment #2 from Robert Clausecker <fuz@FreeBSD.org> ---
Thank you for your submission.  Here are some items for you to check:

 - MASTER_SITES should not be used if the distfile is fetched via USE_GITHUB.
   Please remove MASTER_SITES.
 - v should go into DISTVERSIONPREFIX, not DISTVERSION
 - use USES=pkgconfig instead of adding a BUILD_DEPENDS on pkgconf
 - GH_ACCOUNT defaults to ${PORTNAME}, no need to set it manually
 - you don't need to substitute %%NAME%% all over the place.  The port name is
   not a variable that changes from build to build.
 - the license is not Apache but rather the "Business Source License 1.1".
   Please fix LICENSE to refer to the correct license and set appropriate
   permissions.  However, it looks like the license may be problematic and
   may not permit us to ship binary packages.
 - please make sure surrealdb.in obeys PREFIX.  You can't hard code /usr/local.

The license is probably the biggest problem right now.  As I read it, FreeBSD
may be understood as a "Database Service" as per the license agreement: if you
download the binary package from us, you are a third party (check) that
accesses
the functionality of the licensed work (check) by creating tables (check) whose
schemas are controlled by them (check).  So not sure if we can redistribute
this.
However, source-only should still be possible.
