Yes, and in fact I installed with pkg, did not build anything myself.

That is exactly what I did, `service gitlab start`. Of several services, 
Unicorn fails and the logs/unicorn.stderr.log says the symlink fails.

However, I did not change the user to root via rc vars. Do I need to? 
And speaking of those, the rc script does not respect rc vars. I can 
`service gitlab start` even if there's no gitlab_enable="YES" in 
rc.conf, and there is no onestart.

Ok, I'll try with the latest repo.

No, I meant no error logged (in any of the logs). Nothing in gitlab's or 
nginx' logs that would tell what exactly failed. Only that there was a 
timeout, which I already know.
