Well, package can ship /etc/sv/foo/run without dh_runit. See, the real
purpose of ${runit:Breaks} is that if dh_runit is used with `logscript'
option, it will generate

	/etc/sv/foo/log/run

which contains script, assuming features of recent versions of
bin:runit, hence the Breaks. Checking for this file would be
more accurate.

It should be noted, that packages can (and sometimes do, sign) ship
their own `/etc/sv/<foo>/log/run', not generated by `dh_runit', and
which do not need Breaks.

Hope this helps.
