No, it's not a wrapper around s6-rc anymore. 66 is now an independent
service manager using s6 as process supervisor.
A good read in regards to 66 service frontend (unit) files can be found here
(attention to section “A word about the @execute key”)

With the current state of s6-rc I would say using the 66 suite wrapper would be
my personal most preferred implementation of s6.

For anybody interested on s6-rc/s6-66 on Debian based distro's I have created
some unofficial spins with multiple inits which work independently from each

Thank you! I have my own configuration for both runit and the GNU Shepherd, but
I like the elegance of s6-rc and wanted to try it.
The concept is very simple, any init can be installed under a /usr/lib folder, their service files in relevant sub-folders under /etc, & finally grub is configured to recognise any available init under the /lib folders

Technically if you try any of these respins you will find each init works independently
from each other (does not try & hijack folders & files used by other inits).
This should provide a good configuration example you might be after for either
s6-rc or s6-66.
Do you think 66 is simpler than s6-rc?
