New comment by paper42 on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/32019#issuecomment-881884441

Comment:
Void already supports the Pinephone. Other devices would probably have only 1 user and might require some device specific packages (custom kernel, uboot, etc.), so including them in Void wouldn't make much sense (even the Pinephone kernel in repositories is old). Having those packages in a separate repository like what ExpidusOS does would make more sense, but:

* it should be transparent (not have huge commits touching multiple packages with commit message "fix")
* it should upstream changes where possible

There are people interested in Void on a Pinephone, I know at least about @jcgruenhage and me, git log will probably tell you more. I have some updated packages in my own repository (the pinephone kernel, phosh, squeekboard...), but I wasn't able to properly test them yet, so I didn't make a PR.
