From the details:
git-daemon-run depends on runit; however:
Package runit is not configured yet

From the details:

grep: /etc/inittab: No such file or directory

The nonexistence of /etc/inittab seems the cause. But I would not expect this to exist in a Ubuntu setup.

<Blush> the bug reporting system said it would help the developers if I reported this bug. But it doesn't look like a Ubuntu package to me. Probably I should not have reported it.
