Hello!
I am Debian maintainer of `runit' supervision suite. Recently, I

Hi!
I'm not sure is it good idea to include .u files in usual rotation process
at all, and especially handle them just like .s files. If several crashes
happens for some reason in a short period of time this will result in
deletion of all log files except last (say) 10 .u files, which are usually
