Control: tag -1 -pending Control: tags -1 -patch Hi,
I'll put this one on hold for now. This is likely the only package in the archive that needs to enable the runit service even when runit is not init, so I don't like adding support for this case in runit-helper. Also, I want to phase out runit-helper in favor of the trigger/metafiles interface in runit package, so another point against extending runit-helper for this case. I'll see if I can properly test some variation of the patch on systemd/sysv, otherwise I'll go with the Readme and maybe update the package description too.
