Comment:
I understand the utility of the firmware files; I use them in all of my VMs. My point is that the template requires a lot of manual effort because the EDK build system isn't sane, and these steps are likely to break from one release to the next. Void is a small team and fragile templates that require a lot of manual work become disproportionate time sinks.

In the meantime, the firmware blobs can be manually extracted from packages of other distributions and used in Qemu/KVM installations in Void with minimal effort.
