Cannot compile on FreeBSD

I cloned the Github repo but I cannot compile Aporia - glib2 is not found:
[peter@pcbsd-peter ~/nim/Aporia]$ nim c aporia

I can compile the examples from Nim repo without problem, gtk2 is installed in the system. What did I miss?
did you install the GTK wrappers? nimble install gtk2@#head.
Sorry, I did not see any instruction about it.
Trying to install gtk2:
[peter@pcbsd-peter ~]$ nimble install gtk2@#head

Looking for cairo (any version)...

Looks like a Nim bug with osproc on BSD.
Yes, commenting lines 101, 102, 103 in download.nim from nimble I can get it working:
if exitCode != QuitSuccess:
raise newException(OSError, "Unable to query remote tags for " & url &
". Git returned: " & output)
Aporia is compiled successfully now, I can run it without problems. Thank you!
Probably something needs to be adjusted in osproc to catch exit code on FreeBSD...
I've just installed nim 0.12 and nimble 0.6.4 - the error is still here, I cannot install any package using nimble.
Please, fix!
Report it in the Nim repo please.
Closing as it is Nim-stdlib-specific.
