I have moved usbmuxd to root-packages directory in 6b81c67 commit because it requires root permission as discussed in #20827. Should usbmuxd be moved back to main packages directory? Or, should all the reverse dependencies of usbmuxd be moved to root-packages directory?

What if I revert that commit for myself?
Will it work?

Probably. My question is for other maintainers.

@Grimler91 did some changes to make libusb work without root (in separate branch), but I do not know if there any progress.

The build-order.py is already passed all package directories, so OP likely has removed root-packages directory from repo.json and/or from termux-packages git repo.

termux-packages/scripts/build/termux_step_get_dependencies.sh

Line 113 in 488d5d1

done<<<$(./scripts/buildorder.py $(test "${TERMUX_INSTALL_DEPS}" = "true" && echo "-i") "$TERMUX_PKG_BUILDER_DIR" $TERMUX_PACKAGES_DIRECTORIES || echo "ERROR")

There might be other main repo packages that depend on packages from root/x11 repo as well. It still could be good policy for core/bootstrap packages to only depend on packages from main repo.

Should we keep this issue opened or we should close it in prior to #21130?
