Thanks you for your review and also for the quick response to bug reports that
I have made on apt :)
After your review, I've made the following changes;
* versioned Breaks+Replaces
* upload to experimental instead of unstable
* runit-run.postinst: add a newline before inserting the text
avoid code duplication
* runit-run.postrm: remove newline at the end of the inittab file,
but only if more than one is detected

I haven't addressed this: the "-run" suffix is common for runit related
packages (and also runit users) and it's used to mark a tiny config package
that ships a runit service, for example
- getty-run --> runit service for getty
- git-daemon-run --> runit service for git daemon
- mini-httpd-run --> runit service for mini-httpd
So runit-run is for "run runit as a service under another init system" as
opposite to runit-init which is for "use runit as full init replacement".
I think the uninitiated user can get an idea by reading the package description
of runit, runit-init and runit-run.
Anyway I'm open to suggestions if someone thinks that the package description is
not helping or there is an idea for a better name then "runit-run".
I've re-uploaded the package:
