New comment by paper42 on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/13850#issuecomment-1364113854

Comment:
I do not think this is a good fit for void repositories.

* updates have to happen by one major version every time
* the user has to click on the update button in the UI before a new update comes otherwise they will have to downgrade, click on the button, update one version, click on the button again, etc.
* users can not click on the update button in the administration settings otherwise they will break the package's consistency and get downgraded with the next xbps nextcloud update
* it would be just a repackaging of 400MB of static files, there is nothing to build, so people can as well just extract the tarball to the right location by themselves

If you want to use nextcloud, either use docker or their installer script that also properly handles updates through multiple major versions.
