New issue by martnnw on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/24709

Description:

[OpenDrop](https://github.com/seemoo-lab/opendrop) is a command-line tool that allows sharing files between devices directly over Wi-Fi. Its unique feature is that it is protocol-compatible with Apple AirDrop which allows to share files with Apple devices running iOS and macOS. Why package it?

- As far as I know it's currently the only convenient way of interfacing with Apple devices on Linux. 
- Quite a lot of people use iPhones.

**Package might be troublesome to implement as it requires OpenSSL. It also requires an open re-implementation of Apple's Wireless Direct Link (AWDL) such as the projects own implementation [OWL](https://github.com/seemoo-lab/owl).**

Comment:
https://github.com/seemoo-lab/owl/issues/45 OWL will probably never have a release. Closing this for now...
