What about "archived" repos?
Lots of things changed in few years. Now it doesn't make sense to separate x11 packages to https://github.com/termux/x11-packages - we no longer need to deal with side collaborator access rights.

Anyway to launch vlc with arguments with termux?
* It is not available through the official packages repository. You could, although, try building it from the source code, however you might have to patch the source code and port it for Android; if you manage to do this, it would be appreciated if you could help the project by adding VLC to Termux's GUI repository. You could also use mpv-x as an alternative, it is available in Termux's repositories.

FreeBSD 14.0 Delivering Great Performance Uplift
I needed to look at your comment for 10 minutes before I got what you mean. So you want containers that run on any POSIX operating systems?
You can do this with ptrace() which is in POSIX, but its going to be slow for i/o heavy applications. Unfortunately POSIX doesn't provide anything else (seccomp would already be a step up). See also proot[1], gVisor[2] and User Mode Linux[3] which all use ptrace().

WHAT ARE FILES .l2s.*
Documentation does not exist. Just like in best traditions of open source software typically maintained by one person. Look the proot source code instead. Here is the link to extension source code: https://github.com/termux/proot/blob/master/src/extension/link2symlink/link2symlink.c

Ubuntu 22.04 on android 12
You'll probably want to do that inside of a proot environment.

The /sys filesystem is not mounted. If you are running in a chroot environment, bind-mount missing filesystems. on opensuse
Now regarding proot: it can't have higher privileges than your Termux shell session, despite the user "root" which may possibly appear. It was told many times here on Reddit, Termux GitHub and even Wiki (https://wiki.termux.com/wiki/PRoot) that PRoot does not give extra privileges and root user is fake.

Termux is an Android terminal emulator and Linux environment app
I understand the sentiment, but I disagree. From the last time I checked, the big compromise with GNU/Linux phones is still the lack of social media and messaging apps and appstore ecosystem. Android, with root, is every bit as much a computer as a Pinephone and Librem 5, but the opposite isn't true. Termux has PRoot, a user-space implementation of chroot allowing a full distro install. I personally don't have any problem depending on Google, I have a problem with things being locked away with no alternative. Given the option, I will happily accept the risks and void my warray to root.
