Hi, this doesn't make sense, the whole and single purpose of the
git-daemon-run package is to provide a runit service.  Try dpkg -L
git-daemon-run.  The git-daemon program itself is in the git-core
package.

It might be a bug in the runit Debian package, yes.

Ups, it's useless inside a vserver context?, I didn't know about that,
that would be another bug in the runit Debian package then.
