Description: 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.
