Bug Description

Binary package hint: runit-run

Found during a install test:

--------------------------------------------------------------------8<---------------------------------------------
Selecting previously deselected package runit-run.
Unpacking runit-run (from .../runit-run_0.8.1_all.deb) ...

This package diverts sysvinit's /sbin/init binary. Use

 # /sbin/init.sysv 6

to reboot the system with runit as process no 1 after installing this
package.

Please read the runit documentation before proceeding:

  http://smarden.org/runit/

Press ENTER to continue, press Ctrl-C to abort...
--------------------------------------------------------------------8<---------------------------------------------

It should use debconf for prompting

pkg needed by snort.
Bug is that during install, not selecting the option for actually replacing sysinit.
So just installing the pkg without any change gives the bug.
