Waiting for what? 🤔

Looks like there's been plenty of recent updates to me: https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/commits/master/

its like a four person team or somethinh meow, stuff like this just happens on smaller independent distros (plus if u want u can copy the pkg definition an build it urselfs)

Look I understand it's a small team, but they also not onboard more people. I like the AUR in that regard much more, since that scales at least. No single point.

If Void Linux has some kind of AUR instead of this long list of open PRs, I would go directly for Void instead of Arch.

i think yhere is a void usrr repository thjng aroind somewhere, but also maintaining a distros package repository is not something u simply onboard more people, there has to be trust and accountability to make sure malware isnt being packagesd to users meow

also the aur is run under archs infrastructure so there is a little bit of single point meows

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
