Package description for 'minit'

a small and fine sysvinit replacment

 - It can start services and take dependencies into account. 
 - It can restart services 
 - It can start services in sync mode (i.e. wait until they terminate,
   to get around race conditions for static initializations) 
 - There is a companion utility "msvc" that can be used much in the
   same way as the svc from daemontools. Communication works over two
   fifos, /etc/minit/in and /etc/minit/out. Those have to exist before
   minit is started and they should be owned by root and have mode 600. 
 - There is a companion utility "pidfilehack" that can be used to do
   stuff like run ssh, wait a while, read the PID off /var/run/sshd.pid
   and tell minit this PID so it will know when sshd exits and can restart it. 
 - It can pipe stdout to a dedicated log process.
