Please note that I am using Void Linux. Here is my /etc/network/interfaces.d/br0 file:
auto br0
iface br0 inet dhcp
    bridge_ports eth0
    bridge_stp off
        bridge_waitport 0
        bridge_fd 0
However on boot I get this error:

I have confirmed that I have bridge-utils installed. I am at a loss for what the problem here is. I would appreciate help.
