I updated yesterday on my home PC without a problem, but just now I updated 
from 20150127_1 to 20150127_3 on another PC and had the problem, that the 
default services were removed but not reinstalled. I was missing the whole 
"single" runlevel and all TTYs from the "default" runlevel, effectively 
pulling the system from underneath my feet and leaving it unable to boot.

I assume this happened because the default links in /etc/runit/runsvdir are 
removed since they are no longer package content and the INSTALL file had 
no chance to create them because now all TTYs were immediately killed by 
their runsv-processes.

I do not think this will be a problem in any further updates, but right now 
I guess others could run into this too. Maybe the INSTALL file could 
install a helper-service pre-installation, that checks after a couple of 
seconds if there is at least one TTY running and if not install them as the 
post-install-process would do. After that it could remove itself. I can 
submit a pull request when I'm back home later today.
