I was about to make a separate post for this, but glad I saw yours first. How did you go about setting this up? I haven't looked yet to see if hyprland is configured in xbps-src.

Not likely because of specific wlroots version used by hyprland. I used to build everything from source directly. There is this template available to install hyprland using xbps-src which I have not tried. https://github.com/Makrennel/hyprland-void

Why does the wlroots version mean hyprland can't be packaged for Void?

hyprland uses a specific development branch of wlroots. libwlroots.so.12032. void only accept stable released versions. see this github issue https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/37544
