xlg pkg
– open short commit log for XBPS template
xlint template | pkgname | :pkgname | :
– scan XBPS template for common mistakes
- use ‘:pkgname’ to lint template as staged in the git index
- use ‘:’ to lint all templates staged in the git index
xlocate -g | -S | [-EFGPiw] pattern

-R repo
consider only packages from repo
xpkgdiff [-Sfrxt] [-a arch] [-R url] [-c file] [-p prop,...] pkg
– compare a package in the repositories to the locally-built version
- run from within a void-packages checkout
- set DIFF to change the diff program used
-S compare package metadata
-f compare package file lists
-r reverse diff (compare local to remote)
-x compare package dependencies
-t compare the full package dependency tree. Only used with -x
(equivalent to xbps-query --fulldeptree -x)
-a arch
set architecture for comparison
-R url
set remote repository url
-c file
compare a file from the package (equivalent to xbps-query --cat)
-p prop,...
compare properties of the package
xpstree
– display tree view of xbps-src processes
xq [-R] pkg ...
– query information about XBPS package
-R query remote repos
xrecent [repourl | arch]
– list packages in repo ordered by build date
xrevbump message templates ... [-- git commit options]
– increase template revision and commit. Use ‘-’ to read templates
from stdin.
xrevshlib package
– list packages shlib-dependent on package or its subpackages
xrs pattern

– list all subpackages of a package
-m only print main package
xuname
– display system info relevant for debugging Void
xvoidstrap dir [packages]
– bootstrap a new Void installation
DESCRIPTION Tools working on the void-packages tree use xdistdir to find it, check that its output is reasonable first.
xi, xls, xq and xrs prefer the hostdir / binpkgs repo if you run them
from a void-packages checkout.
