Description-en: debhelper add-on to handle runit runscripts
dh-runit provides a debhelper sequence addon named 'runit' and the
dh_runit command.
.
The dh_runit command installs runscripts and adds the appropriate code to
the postinst, prerm and postrm maint scripts to properly enable/disable
and purge runscripts. When runit is PID 1 the maint script code also takes
care of restarting services during upgrades, when appropriate.
