No follow-up for Debian GNU/Linux ?

No follow-up for Debian GNU/Linux ?

[Gilles]

Hello.


I sent a bug report about the "runit" package for
Debian.  It has been quite some time now, without
a follow-up for what seems, at first sight, a minor
correction to the installation script.

I'm also surprised that runit's version is now above
1.2, while 1.0.5 is still the only available option
for Debian.

Has the Debian package become unsupported?


Best regards,
Gilles

I can't see one, http://bugs.debian.org/runit

1.0.5 is the current stable version, nothing wrong with it I think.

Not at all.  I'm pretty sure Debian/unstable will include the
development version sometime soon.

I've just added some info as to what causes the installation
to fail (unnecessarily, in my opinion).
Please have a look, and hopefully you can resolve an annoying
package management issue to an otherwise perfectly usable
package.


Thanks,
