Yes you are right, this was not intentional. The dependency is
"runit-init | runit-run" to make it installable regardless of how
runit is launched in the system, however I just notice that
"runit-run", which replaced both "runit-sysv" and "runit-systemd", is
only in experimental and not in unstabled. I totally overlooked that,
sorry.

I can change the dependency to "runit-init | runit-run | runit-sysv |
runit-systemd" to support all methods of running runit on a system.
Would that work for you, or would it already be too restrictive for
your use case?

The alternative would be to only depend on "runit", however the
service would not necessarily start when the package is installed.
People expect services to start on package installation on Debian.
