Envision will warn you if some are missing.
Except for OpenXR these are standard packages which can be found in the Void repositories, you may need `-devel` for some packages like `libbsd-devel` for example.
Getting OpenXR can be a bit tricky, but you can follow the instructions for installing OpenXR on this page to get you started.
## Installing OpenXR Just make sure you have all necessary dependencies installed for building your
desired profile. For Monado, all of the dependencies can be found in the Void
repositories - see the following section [Building Monado](#building-monado)
for the full list.
As of writing (April 2025) OpenXR is not available in the Void Linux repositories, you can however build and install it yourself using `xbps-src`. Envision may warn you about other missing dependencies. They can usually be

for example: `libbsd-devel`
In the meantime you can use the OpenXR template from the PR to build and install OpenXR locally.
Just clone the void-packages repo with the OpenXR template and install using the following steps from within the root dir:
```bash
./xbps-src binary-bootstrap
./xbps-src pkg openxr
xi openxr openxr-devel

There is another [PR](https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/53279) with templates for xrgears, Monado and libsurvive that you can use, however it is easier and recommended to just use Envision to build everything for you.
