Bug#896163: RFS: runit/2.1.2-12

[Dmitry Bogatov <KAction@gnu.org>]

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "runit"

* Package name     : runit
  Version          : 2.1.2-12
  Upstream Author  : Gerrit Pape <pape@smarden.org>
* Url              : http://smarden.org/runit/
* Licenses         : BSD-3-clause
  Programming Lang : C
  Section          : admin

 runit is a collection of tools to provide system-wide service supervision
 and to manage services.  Contrary to sysv init, it not only cares about
 starting and stopping services, but also supervises the service daemons
 while they are running.  Amongst other things, it provides a reliable
 interface to send signals to service daemons without the need for pid-files,
 and a log facility with automatic log file rotation and disk space limits.
 .
 runit service supervision can run under sysv init or replace the init
 system completely.  Complete init replacement provided by 'runit-init'
 package.

It builds those binary packages:

  * runit
  * runit-systemd
  * runit-sysv
  * getty-run
  * runit-init

This package succesfully builds on debomatic machine:

  http://debomatic-i386.debian.net/distribution#unstable/runit/2.1.2-12

With /bin/sh following commands should suffice:

  $ git clone https://salsa.debian.org/runit-team/runit.git runit
  $ cd runit
  $ origtargz
  $ dgit sbuild

Changes since last upload:

  * Improve 'contrib/1' to support boot in single mode. (Closes: #895914)
    + Thanks: Lorenzo Puliti <lorenzo.ru.g@gmail.com>
  * Simplify code (in particular, debian/rules), generating getty runscripts.
  * Improve getty runscripts to not waste CPU when tty is already busy.
    (Closes: #895904)
