New comment by hippi777 on void-packages repository https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/26981#issuecomment-739619375 Comment: hi folks! :) i saw other distros' package managers in void, i see them as they are nice-to-have toys for making void a swiss army knife when it comes to hack on broken systems or for experimenting with whatever weird ideas and what not... :D i feel the same about xdeb! it can be used to experiment around debian stuffs while i guess xbps will track the files of the packages created by xdeb, and that renders it less of a dirty work. other than this to my campaign for it, i guess its basically a matter of 1-2 lines inside the docs, that it exists, it is related to void, and therefore included for quick-and-dirty hacking purposes, however it is discouraged, and basically a package request is the way to go. also, i think it should be improved, it has active maintenance, u can address the maintainer of it with requests, that is the option for creating an initial/"good enough" template, and it should get a way to prefix the path, and then it can install things under /usr/local or home, or even a chroot test environment! :) (dont forget to) have fun on hacking! ;) (... i mean in general, and just to keep the right spirit! :D )
