LXer: Void Linux: A Rolling-Release Distro From Scratch
 

Published at LXer:

Void Linux is a rolling-release Linux distribution that focuses upon speed, reliability, and flexibility. Void Linux is built from scratch, deploys its own XBPS package manager, and builds upon existing packages like systemd and DKMS. Void Linux with its package manager, XBPS, currently has over 3,000 packages for x86, x86_64, and ARMv6 hard-float architectures.
