There is a new pull request by sirikid against master on the void-packages repository https://github.com/sirikid/void-packages don't-strip-unknown-binaries https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/21288 06-strip-and-debug-pkgs.sh: ignore binaries for unknown machines Because most likely these files are not executables, but some kind of bytecode.
