Description

Description: The Brave Browser installation script currently fails on Void Linux because it doesn’t detect a supported package manager. Void Linux uses xbps-install for package management.

System details: Linux 6.12.57_1 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Tue Nov 4 00:14:17 UTC 2025 x86_64 GNU/Linux

NAME="Void" ID="void" PRETTY_NAME="Void Linux" HOME_URL="https://voidlinux.org/" DOCUMENTATION_URL="https://docs.voidlinux.org/" LOGO="void-logo" ANSI_COLOR="0;38;2;71;128;97" DISTRIB_ID="void"

Request: Please add detection and installation support for Void Linux (using xbps-install).

調査方針: The issue requests adding Void Linux support via xbps install to the Brave browser installation script. Look at the existing script (likely a shell script in the repository) where package manager detection occurs (e.g., for apt, yum, pacman). Add a case for Void Linux by checking for the presence of xbps install and using it to install Brave. Ensure the script can detect Void Linux via /etc/os release (ID="void"). Test the change on a Void Linux system if possible. The change is localized and should follow the pattern of existing package manager handling.
