I don't generally question people that are this far above my weight class
on a topic - but I'm pretty sure this [1] implies that pid 1 is not a
requirement.
I'm also confused why my suggestion would be put down so harshly outside of
the possible pid 1 issue.
If one doesn't want to require a user of their lxc image to modify the
config - but wants to use runit - what I suggested certainly would fit that
core requirement. I made no suggestion that it was perfect - but it was an
option for someone that views the reality of changing a line in a config
file differently than I would.
I have a boat load of issues with things that I work with that consume way
more time than should be necessary. I also happened to remember having seen
an init that allowed signal remapping in the past.
This smallest amount of empathy for a fellow bike shed painter meant that I
offered up what I remembered.
My apologies for the noise.
