New comment by Duncaen on void-packages repository https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/33815#issuecomment-967661799 Comment: In normal cases the supervise "directory" is actually a symlink pointing to something like `/run/runit/supervise.$service`, this is something we do in void and it avoids runit writing temporary stuff to the filesystem of `/etc`. What happened to some services was due to a bug in `xbps-src` this symlink was not created for the log services whose run file was a symlink to something, in this case `vlogger`. This bug was fixed and those packages now contain this symlink. But since they did not previously and runit created the supervise directory, which also was not tracked by xbps we run into this problem. xbps does not recursively delete previously untracked files, so because this directory is untracked and contains files, manual intervention is required once, once for those 12 services iirc.
