In that case, could you have someone from the upstream file a bug? If that support is provided, such a regression is not warranted -- and a bug report from upstream carries a lot more weight than from a mere user. > This episode is again of great shame on Debian maintainers, but it > should be addressed by upstream. Note that, while it might be tempting to "just fix it in Devuan", this would be a great duplication of effort. A fix in Debian proper affects all derivatives, and thus applies to orders of magnitude more users than Devuan currently has. It would also avoid forcing admins to use an inferior init/rc system. (I haven't ever used redis, thus I have no monkey in this fight, and I'm in no real position to help.)
