There is a new pull request by phikal against master on the void-packages repository

https://github.com/phikal/void-packages-1 master
https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/21351

base-system: Removed wifi dependencies
I use void on a Raspberry Pi, and it doesn't have WiFi. When trimming the system down to what I need, I always get stuck on a view `base-system` dependencies that would like to remove without using XBPS `-f` flag.

Here I suggest dropping the WiFi related packages, but would more generally like to start a conversation about dropping others too (`void-artwork`, `btrfs-progs`, `xfsprogs`, ...). 

I'm not familiar enough with the void system at large to know what the consequences would be. Just ignore and close this pull request if I'm opening some Pandora's box, that should just be ignored.

A patch file from https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/21351.patch is attached
