as cool as i think this package is, we don't generally package forks of existing packages, and we already have enough sysinfo-showing-commands packaged

Would the maintainers consider making an exception? Neofetch is no longer maintained and hyfetch is, so I think this would be a good package to supplement the original neofetch

Heii! is there any chance of this PR being reopened now that neofetch is officially dead?
I use the pipx package of hyfetch but since it needs the virtual environment, its quite slow.
also, im not sure if the neofetch package should get deleted or turned into a dummy package for smthn like hyfetch or fastfetch, like is done with polymc and prism launcher for example. of course its unmaintained, but you could also consider it finished...

oh also, i dont really know how to use github tbh. i updated the template to 1.4.11 (latest version of hyfetch) and it works on my mashine. if i wasnt such an idiot id prolly merge it into this PR, but im too stoopid for that😭

I'll just send the updated template in this comment here for now till i figure this all out lmaoo

# Template file for 'hyfetch'
pkgname=hyfetch
version=1.4.11
revision=1
build_style=python3-module

post_install() {
	vlicense LICENSE.md
}

I'd also consider maybe changing the pkgname to python3-hyfetch to fit with the naming convention.

I would also like to see this package be adopted into Void. Is there a way of letting users know that neofetch is no longer maintained?

(Unrelated, but the fact that the original developer of neofetch, @dylanarp, has their profile set to say that they've taken up farming is wonderful; I can totally respect that.)

is neofetch that critical that users need to move away from it immediately now that upstream development has stopped?

fastfetch was packaged as an alternative after neofetch was archived

I think that this should just be pulled in anyways. I'm confidently saying that, since so many distros already have it in their repos. Maybe not as much as fastfetch, but it's still something. Either way, I don't see any reason not to adopt this package.
