New comment by the-maldridge on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/21862#issuecomment-629917437

Comment:
The most correct action would be to have a virtual package for X, but that relies on components of xbps that are less stable than I'd like.  The best and most straightforward action is to not patch this package, as adding the dependency would be inappropriate, and to not patch it out of gdm, as that could inadvertently break existing users.

Once virtual packages become a better option, having them depend on a virtual package for xorg with xorg-server being the default provides would be an acceptable option.
