An AUR package exists for OpenTabletDriver already, which can be used for reference.

I am sorry for necroposting to this, but has there been any progress on this issue, as from what I can see currently, dotnet6 hasn't been merged to the repos.

I would attempt to package this myself but I currently do not have access to a void system to work on this.

Edit: "has" changed to "hasn't" after noticing the issue after the post directly below this one

from what I can see currently, dotnet6 has been merged to the repos.

https://voidlinux.org/packages/?arch=x86_64&q=dotnet where? I don't see anything. From my understanding void-dotnet#1 will contain info about latest status for .NET Core 6/7 packaging, but it's certainly still not merged.

I just noticed what I wrote, I'm so sorry about that; I wrote this early in the morning my time and wasn't exactly very awake, I misread the void post you linked. Apologies on my part. Yea dotnet isn't merged yet, whoops.

Edit: I originally meant to say "hasn't" in my original post, not "has". Excuse the miscommunication please.

Yeah, still working on it, sorry.

void-dotnet#1

[JamiKettunen]

@rmboggs No need to be sorry, you're doing great work! I'm looking forward to seeing .NET Core stuff finally in void repos eventually ^^

the fact alone that this isn't packaged and has been requested almost 3 years ago, only to stall at dotnet also not being in the repo, will probably make me install a different distribution just so i can use my tablet lol (which is pretty unfortunate)

@nvkomimi The crappy solution I've been using for a while now is using the .NET 6.0 runtime binaries from M$ extracted at /opt/dotnet-runtime, configured as the default runtime with mkdir /etc/dotnet && echo /opt/dotnet-runtime > /etc/dotnet/install_location and similarly using the OTD binaries (.tar.gz) extracted at /opt/OpenTabletDriver with a setup like:

==> /home/user/.local/share/applications/OpenTabletDriver.UX.Gtk.desktop <==
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=OpenTabletDriver
Exec=otd

==> /usr/local/bin/otd <==
#!/bin/sh
if ! pgrep -x OpenTabletDriver.Daemon; then
	/opt/OpenTabletDriver/OpenTabletDriver.Daemon &
fi
/opt/OpenTabletDriver/OpenTabletDriver.UX.Gtk

Works but really not great by any means...
