There is an updated pull request by fosslinux against master on the void-packages repository
https://github.com/fosslinux/void-packages tlpdb-new
https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/27653
texlive: fix tlmgr.
This PR adds a package texlive-tlpdb that is in the same vein as the foomatic-db* family, where there is no checksum as it packages a volatile database updated roughly daily that should be bumped regularly to ensure operation of tlmgr.
tlmgr requires the use of /usr/share/texmf-dist/tlpkg/texlive.tlpdb to
work correctly. We don't distribute this currently, but now we do, in
the package texlive-tlpdb. It is split out because it is very volatile
and we don't want to have to continously bump the full texlive package.
This finally! makes tlmgr work.
A patch file from https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/27653.patch is attached

Comment:
There is nothing the system texlive does that cannot be done with `texlive-bin`, apart from integration with other packages. System texlive has a number of advantages anyway. Usecases I see for tlmgr in system texlive include:
1. User-specific packages on a multi-user system.
2. Installing CTAN packages we do not provide (there are a few).
3. Installing parts of packages we provide without pulling in the entire massive package such as fontsextra.
I do not see this being used as a root-wide, i.e. not installing to `/usr/share/texmf-dist`, only for `~/texmf` (user mode). `tlmgr` is also responsible for a couple of configuration options, such as default paper size.
Perhaps we should also patch tlmgr like Debian to only support usermode `tlmgr`, as that is the only usecase we should be supporting. I don't see any way in which that is "actively hostile to packaging".
Either way, we need to make it very clear which way we are going:
- Distributing tlmgr and making it work
- Not distributing tlmgr and not supporting it (move to `texlive-bin` if you want that)
Not in this state of limbo where we have an nonfunctional tlmgr script and people semi-regularly complaining about it.

I meant the specific new package you're creating, since it doesn't exist as a versioned thing.
Can you install packages with `tlmgr` onto any arch, or does it work only for glibc stuff? Because if it only works for glibc, I'm okay with moving it to texlive-bin entirely. Still, a minimally working program that allows you to control settings and stuff can be nice, so we might just have to make do... I assume we can't fake a tpldb, just for tlmgr to kind of work?

There's a merged pull request on the void-packages repository
texlive: fix tlmgr.
https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/27653
Description:
This PR adds a package texlive-tlpdb that is in the same vein as the foomatic-db* family, where there is no checksum as it packages a volatile database updated roughly daily that should be bumped regularly to ensure operation of tlmgr.
tlmgr requires the use of /usr/share/texmf-dist/tlpkg/texlive.tlpdb to
work correctly. We don't distribute this currently, but now we do, in
the package texlive-tlpdb. It is split out because it is very volatile
and we don't want to have to continously bump the full texlive package.
This finally! makes tlmgr work.
