I politely refuse. Either you (I mean all of bin:init maintainers)
/actively/ take part in debugging issue you consider blocker, or you
step aside and let me deal with incoming stream of bugs.

I remind you, that you do not have veto right. The very fact, that
`init' is meta-package, not virtual package, is technical solution, not
instrument of power for bin:init maintainers.

Sure. I will write draft summary of disagreement in a week or so into
this bug.

But until and unless CTTE overrules my decision, `runit-init' will be
installable without uninstalling essential packages, either as
pre-dependency of bin:init or as package, that provides `init'.
