Binary package hint: runit
After installing 'runit' and 'socklog' in order to use 'bincimap', my system fails to run 'runsvdir' at boot-up. This is despite the fact that '/etc/inittab' has been rewritten to contain the stanza:
#-- runit begin
SV:123456:respawn:/usr/sbin/runsvdir-start
#-- runit end
Searching for messages in the system logs turns up nothing
ferrix:~# find /var/log -type f -exec grep -l -e 'runit\|runsvdir' {} \;
/var/log/auth.log
/var/log/dpkg.log.1
/var/log/popularity-contest.0
/var/log/popularity-contest
/var/log/auth.log.0
Searching for the process
ferrix:~# ps ax | grep runsvdir
also reveals nothing
However, executing 'runsvdir-start' by hand brings the subsystem up without error
