I didn't meant spread in term of distro coverage, but spread in term of  it's known and used by security enthusiast peoples.

It's mostly oral feedback or Discord DMs. At least in the pentest community people are familiar with python and not afraid of pip install stuff but when it comes to cpan, npm, gem, cargo, etc. they are lost and don't know what to do so they prefer distro packages.

Thank you, has a BA dev I know that, that's why I also offered to test and stuff.

But anyway, thanks for the discussion, I'll just add the Void template to haiti repo as in the end whatever the choice of where it's stored it will be me maintaining it.
