Hi, a runit test package version 1.7.1 is available through

 http://smarden.org/runit/

The CHange Process STate program, chpst, now allows the user and group
arguments to the -u and -U switches to be specified by numerical uid
and gid, in addition to user and group names found in /etc/passwd and
/etc/group.  The sv program has been fixed to properly wait for services
to restart when so requested, and report success or timeout.  More
contributed scripts have been added to the collection of run scripts.

If you use runit regularly, please contribute[0] to the project.

Thanks, Gerrit.
