Sorry, I didn't have time to reply, but I made a good deal of progress earlier today, after writing to the list. Yes that is correct; pax was one of the things I was missing. I was also missing libuuid-devel. I needed to change the header paths for ncurses headers in the source. I also needed to fine libtinfo, because Void doesn't have it. Void could probably have libtinfo provided by their curses package with a fairly straightforward change. I figured out how to get libtinfo from ncurses by looking at the Arch PKGBUILD for ncurses. > would also help to know what the ID and VERSION_ID fields of Void's > /etc/os-release look like.

If you do try again, please report :) Indeed. Ideally, I'll eventually end up with a package script for Void -- known as a "template" in Void parlance. I'll keep working on that until it's written. > Hope that helps, Thank you. -- Chris
