This happens because the computer is still running systemd as the init process and any runit commands will therefore not work until the computer has been rebooted with runit as the init system. I also don't think there is a trivial way to solve this problem. And, after all, with systemd being the default and supported init system on Debian as per GR decision, you are on your own anyways when you decided to switch to one of the alternative init systems. And since runit is not officially supported to be the init system in Debian, I don't think this bug qualifies as release critical either. I'd be tempted to lower the severity to 'normal'.
