That is great! Thanks you for your work!

So you implemented your own approach to register configuration files or 
don't you register configuration files at all

Why

https://salsa.debian.org/runit-team/runit-services/-/blob/master/sv/ssh/
run

when Debian openssh-server package already has this:

[…]:/etc/sv/ssh# find
.
./.meta
./.meta/installed
./log
./log/supervise
./log/run
./supervise
./finish
./run

Looking at the run script it appears more up to date to me (for example 
using /run instead of /var/run).

How will your package work in the case a runit service is already there?

Great.
