 Hi,
 
 I build the package successful on a powerpc-linux machine from the 
 supplied pkgsrc directory. The install was also successful.
 
 uname -a
 Linux ole 2.4.25-ben1 #5 Tue Sep 21 10:47:41 CEST 2004 ppc GNU/Linux
 
 The machine is Debian 3.0 updated to 3.1 outfitted with gcc and gmake 
 to bootstrap pkgsrc and the rest of tools is installed via pkgsrc.
 
 Since there is a new version 1.0.5 perhaps we could import the package 
 and update it then (or the other way round). If it is wanted I can 
 build the newer one.
 
 Why should that package be used?
 daemontools can not be configured natively to have dependencies. To 
 define something like that you need the svwaitup and svwaitdown 
 binaries out of this package.
 The runit tools do quite a lot more but if you are into daemontools you 
 will probably want them for sure.
 
 Thanks,
 
 Marc
