New comment by ahesford on void-packages repository https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/36561#issuecomment-1100679676 Comment: Just kill the build option and patch out the packed stuff. There's no need to complicate the makefile patch and borrow trouble with a build option nobody is going to use. If somebody intends to use the packed option and believes it belongs in the template instead of vendoring two files, let that person make the case when needed. Also, if the justification is to use this library for other templates, you might as well include those adjustments in this PR to demonstrate the viability.
