I stand corrected Eric. The latest version (0.7.0.0) of the 66-suite which you wrote & helped build for antiX, and is what is used on the other Debian based 'init-diversity' spins I posted in this thread, is a complete re-write & now independent of s6-rc (in contrast to the previous version which was a wrapper around s6-rc).
It is a very elegant implementation of s6, & a very popular option even outside Obarun thanks to your personal commitment & contribution on distros that you're no affiliated with such as antiX & Void.

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”) > https://web.obarun.org/software/66/latest/66-frontend.html > > With the current state of s6-rc I would say using the 66 suite wrapper would > be my personal most preferred implementation of s6. > > > > > > Στις Κυριακή 7 Απριλίου 2024 στις 02:48:40 μ.μ.
