I know this has been asked before, so my apologies. I am just wondering if its possible to xbps-src .... and recomplie the entire operating sytem. I'm having some issues with hardware sensors and have jumped though numerous loops to no avail. I would like to try to compile a kernel module or two and get them loaded to see if that helps. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

For pointers on how to do that check the void-packages readme <https://github.com/voidlinux/void-packages/blob/master/README.md>. - If you want to create your own packages take a look at the manual <https://github.com/voidlinux/void-packages/blob/master/Manual.md> on github. - To create packages for kernel modules you might want to take a look at the existing DKMS-packages like broadcom-wl-dkms <https://github.com/voidlinux/void-packages/tree/master/srcpkgs/broadcom-wl-dkms> or zfs <https://github.com/voidlinux/void-packages/tree/master/srcpkgs/zfs>. I sincerely doubt that you will have to recompile the entire system though :) [-- Attachment #1.2: Type: text/html, Size: 887 bytes --] ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

I'll give those links a look, I'm trying to figure out how to come by the source from which a pre-existing binary package was compiled/packaged. Not being in void very long, in apt/bed repositories it would have been a source repository and somepackage-version-src.deb ( or what have you for the extension ). I haven't had time to experiment lately. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

You can rebuild easily all your packages with xbps-src: 1- get a list of pkgs that were installed manually (not as dependencies): xbps-query -m 2- build all pkgs set on that list with xbps-src: ./xbps-src -N pkg <pkg> ...
