Ohai, Chefs!

As most people know, we set up some Chef services[0] under Runit with  
the opscode/cookbooks. While testing this on Ubuntu Karmic Koala alpha  
3, I found a bug[1] in the runit package itself.

The upstart directory changed from /etc/event.d/ to /etc/init/, and  
the runit package still places the runsvdir upstart file in /etc/ 
event.d/runsvdir. This should be /etc/init/runsvdir.conf (the .conf is  
significant).

Since Karmic is still in the alpha stage, and this should be fixed  
'soon', we won't be making any changes to the cookbooks to work around  
this. I submitted a patch on the bug report and will be working  
through the process to get the package fixed.

[0] chef-client on clients, chef-indexer and stompserver on servers.
