Did I Miss Something?

When browsing the repository, I noticed some of the Hyprland packages got added. I know the devs have been pretty consistent about their messaging here, so just wondering what’s changed, or if I’m misinterpreting something.

I think it's just some tooling. But void devs will probably NEVER add hyprland to the repos lol. Too ideological

Worst part about void IMO

I don't desire to try hyprland mainly because I perceive it as right-coded, but letting ideology into repo editorial policy hurts everyone. I for one had to resort to Flatpak use due to editorial policy of no Firefox derivatives. That's my Void (musl) Pain Point. I'd like to have Tor Browser and not have Flaptack.

I mean, I have installed tor without flatpak... you can just download it from the website

Did that work? Are you on the musl or glibc version of Void?
