Void GNU/Linux is a new distribution that uses XBPS as its package system, | ||
The X Binary Package System has been designed from scratch, please visit | ||
http://code.google.com/p/xbps for more information. | ||
This repository contains the source package tree to build XBPS binary | ||
packages from sources for Void GNU/Linux. | ||
|
||
Void GNU/Linux is a simple and minimal distribution that can be customized | ||
in many ways, through the use of virtual packages. Currently there are | ||
1600 packages in the current repository that you can build and install. | ||
There is support for i686 and x86_64 architectures, more may be added in | ||
a future (i.e. ARM) but it's not a high priority. | ||
You can find more info about XBPS and Void GNU/Linux on: | ||
|
||
Some features: | ||
- It's not a fork or customized version of any distro, it has been created | ||
from scratch making it an extremely lightweight distro. Base install is | ||
approximately 150MB. | ||
- Rolling release. | ||
- Uses the latest stable Linux kernel. The development snapshot from kernel.org | ||
can also be installed in parallel. | ||
- Kernel images/modules are never removed, providing an always-bootable system. | ||
- Uses a modified "initramfs-tools" version from Debian to handle initial | ||
ramdisk images. | ||
- Uses a modified "casper" version from Ubuntu to boot from live images. | ||
- Uses *systemd* as system and session manager, no SysV compatibility! | ||
- Uses its own binary package system: XBPS -- A faster/leaner alternative to Debian's | ||
dpkg/apt, RedHat's RPM, ArchLinux's Pacman, etc. | ||
- You don't need wrappers of wrappers for the XBPS utils to rebuild/reinstall | ||
packages. The provided tools are all that you need. | ||
- Uses a BSD port-like system to build binary packages in chroot jails | ||
without requiring root permissions. This allows building packages as a regular user | ||
without interfering with your installed system! | ||

|
||
When a new stable XBPS version comes out, a new live image is created for | ||
testing purposes along with the minimal base system. | ||
To use this repository the 'xbps-src' utility is required. If you don't use | ||
Void GNU/Linux you can fetch its sources from: | ||
|
||
You can find the Live Images at: | ||
https://github.com/xtraeme/xbps-src | ||
|
||
http://xbps.nopcode.org/live/ | ||
Or alternatively if you are already using Void and/or XBPS you can install | ||
the binary package with: | ||
|
||
