runit
- Ebuilds: 1, Testing: 2.3.1 Description:
runit is a process supervision suite with a focus on being usable as a sysvinit replacement.
It provides similar functionality to packages like <pkg>sys-apps/s6</pkg> and
<pkg>sys-process/daemontools</pkg>, and a compatibility/migration path for the latter.
As this package only provides an init and service manager, it still depends on
<pkg>sys-apps/openrc</pkg> for the rc layer inbetween.
This package installs the vanilla upstream version of runit.
By contrast, the package in the ::gentoo repository gives you Debian's
patchset which diverges significantly from the original.
