I’m not likely to take this plunge on an existing production server, but I would love to learn more about it at some point. I will try to review the presentation video on s6 from the upcoming d1conf (hopefully there will be a recorded session on s6?? :D). I notice there is a s6 package inside Debian archives for buster and unstable, but no other packages. Does this mean that s6 doesn’t need the extra packages like runit has with runit-sysv and runic-init? Or does s6 not provide all the features that runit provides? —Tom _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
