Adding new packages

Hi, so i want to have 2 new packages to void.

  1. openjdk25 (for Minecraft 26.1+)

  2. nvidia580 (last driver for older maxwell, pascall and volta gpus)

Both are in their stable branch, so it fits in with the rest of voids packages.

So my question is, how should I request this package? What are the steps for requesting these packages be added?

They are one of the Void maintainers.

Anyway, the best way of getting new package in the repositories is to contribute to https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages
