Closed issue by hippi777 on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/25901

Description:
hi folks! :)

there are a bunch of rejected stuffs like kernel variants (like libre/xanmod/zen), browsers etc, and the reason against them is basically the compilation time and resources that they consume. (sure, others are rejected cuz of maintenance reasons, and whatever else, but those are different issues for now.)

so actually i think that it would be nice to have a way to give official blessing for some templates that could get enough backers, and that way it wouldnt be necessary to mess with merging the official master with a few other packages, while the need exists for such stuffs, and therefore there would be someone who would put the effort into those...

(also, more or less related, but dropped packages could be moved to somewhere instead of deleting them, so it can be easier to reanimate such, while im not enough deep into git wizardry, and maybe the history can be enough for this one.)

(((the basic idea came from the missing libre kernel, cuz the rest of the system is easy to be kept blob-free, and this holds back much ppl from picking up void, maybe even thats the only missing bit for a respect your freedom cert, and no matter what does that actually mean (as it isnt perfect) its still marginal for many...)))

thx for ur time, and all the bests to all of u folks! :)
