hyprland uses a specific development branch of wlroots. libwlroots.so.12032. void only accept stable released versions. see this github issue https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/37544

Not likely because of specific wlroots version used by hyprland. I used to build everything from source directly. There is this template available to install hyprland using xbps-src which I have not tried. https://github.com/Makrennel/hyprland-void

This kid is making excellent videos especially about minecraft. He certainly seems to know what he is doing.
[Gnu IceCat](https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Gnuzilla) is the GNU version of the Firefox browser.IceCat feels a little faster and use around 60mb less ram than firefox.[Gnuzilla-FSD](https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Gnuzilla) version is 60.7.0 released on 2 June 2019. Here in [Void Linux](https://voidlinux.org/) IceCat is regularly updated and the current version is 68.9.0. AFAIK no other linux distros have IceCat available in their repos.A big thanks to Void devs:folded hands:
All other posts in other subreddits by me are also got removed.Voidlinux does not have a forum apart from this https://www.reddit.com/r/voidlinux/. So I thought It wought be nice to have an alternative.
