Description

Package name

hardinfo2

Package homepage

https://hardinfo2.org/

Description

It is a project developed as a continuation of the old hardinfo project. And it has a stable version. The hardinfo package in the repo is very old, and there is no template for the hardinfo project in void-packages. It would be nice to have the hardinfo2 project instead of the hardinfo package.
