Change Details

In Debian Bullseye, the Debian package creates /etc/service as a symlink to /etc/runit/runsvdir/current. The /etc/runit folder is a byzantine complex construction with for example a "current" and "default" set of services. This change switches to an independent /var/service folder, where images can maintain a simpler structure. This fixes issue to build the image using BuildKit, as this mechanism doesn't allow to replace a symlink by a directory.
