Package: runit-services (0.7.1)

UNIX init scheme with service supervision (services)

runit is a replacement for SysV-init and other init schemes. It runs on Debian GNU/Linux, *BSD, MacOSX, and Solaris, and may be easily adapted to other Unix operating systems. runit implements a simple three-stage concept. Stage 1 performs the system's one-time initialization tasks. Stage 2 starts the system's uptime services (via the runsvdir program). Stage 3 handles the tasks necessary to shutdown and halt or reboot.

See http://smarden.org/runit/ for more information.

This package contains services directories for a collection of services available in Debian, to have them run under runit service supervision instead of sysvinit or systemd. Services directories are installed under /usr/share/runit/sv/ and only services of packages that are installed on the system are copied to /etc/sv/. The cpsv utility can be used to copy, inspect and update runscripts in /etc/sv/ after the first installation. It's recommended to read https://salsa.debian.org/Lorenzo.ru.g-guest/runit-services/-/blob/master/README before installing this package.
