At least one package provides a policy-rc.d program
$ dpkg -L runit-run |fgrep policy-rc.d
/usr/sbin/runit-policy-rc.d
/usr/share/man/man8/runit-policy-rc.d.8.gz
/usr/share/doc/runit-run/INTERFACE.policy-rc.d
$ fgrep -A6 'add_alternative()' /var/lib/dpkg/info/runit-run.postinst
add_alternative() {
update-alternatives --install \
/usr/sbin/policy-rc.d policy-rc.d /usr/sbin/runit-policy-rc.d 10 \
--slave \
/usr/share/man/man8/policy-rc.d.8.gz policy-rc.d.8.gz \
/usr/share/man/man8/runit-policy-rc.d.8.gz
}
It's not a full-featured implementation though
$ /usr/sbin/policy-rc.d --list foo
runit's init script policy is to not run any init scripts at all.
