Dear mentors,

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

* Package name : runit
Version : 2.1.2-42
Upstream Author : Gerrit Pape <pape@smarden.org>
* URL : http://smarden.org/runit/
* License : BSD-3-clause, GPL-3+
* Vcs : https://salsa.debian.org/debian/runit
Section : admin

It builds those binary packages:

runit-init - system-wide service supervision (as init system)
getty-run - runscripts to supervise getty processes
runit-systemd - transitional package for runit-systemd users
runit-run - service supervision (systemd and sysv integration)
runit - system-wide service supervision

To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL:

https://mentors.debian.net/package/runit/

Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:

dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/r/runit/runit_2.1.2-42.dsc

git repo: https://salsa.debian.org/debian/runit/-/tree/next

Changes since the last upload:

runit (2.1.2-42) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Release to unstable
* getty-run: add hvc0 service, disabled by default:
this is usually needed by Xen hypervisor
* Add a default-syslog virtual service:
to increase portability, services that log to syslog
can depend on this rather than on a specific
syslog daemon
* shutdown.c:
- try to fix FTBFS on Hurd (Closes: #992629)
- distinguish between halt and shutdown flags:
The -r flag ( as reboot) now only works with shutdown;
Add a -f flag to shutdown (skip fsck next boot);
Add -F flag to shutdown (force fsck next boot);
The -f (as force a shutdown) and -w/--wtmp-only flags now
only work with halt.
(Closes: #992631)
- Add a -n flag to halt, to skip sync() before reboot/poweroff;
also, always check for runit.nosync flag file before invoking
sync() (Closes: #992641)
- make halt '-f' flag a noop when runit is init. This way runit
can use its own code to reboot/poweroff the system; users
can still use the long '--force' option to force a shutdown
without signaling the init (Closes: #899246)
* Update shutdown(8) manpage
* Bump Standards Version to 4.6.0, no change required
* Update lintian overrides for 'alternative init but not init.d script'
