I am not saying that runit is better as s6 - all I want to point out is that debian runit, until recently, intergrates fairly well with sysv-rc. Yes, the supervised services do need their own service-framework with their own scripts. For me (as a simple user) the hard nut to crack was to write stubs and a script which during a debian-update translate the inet-calls to sv-calls without insserv telling me to take a hike. I succeded because I accepted the fact that I have the standard lsb-sysv-scripts in /etc/init.d/ and that the underlying dpkg-system does use these scripts. I fully agree with Laurent's sentiments that it is not as simple... IMHO, it is doeable to make it compatible against an init-system wich is the required default by the package-manager - but without an aggreed standard it will get out of hand. my 2cents Fred BTW, and what about rcS, rc0 and rc6....a complete re-write? Naah... KISS... use what we got! Strictly my opinion. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
