+Use approx with runit supervision
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Install the packages:
+# apt-get install approx runit
+
+Add user approxlog for the logging daemon:
+# adduser --system --home /nonexistent --no-create-home approxlog
+
+Create config directory:
+# mkdir /etc/sv/approx
+
+Use /var/run/sv.approx as supervise directory:
+# ln -s /var/run/sv.approx /etc/sv/approx/supervise
+
+# cat > /etc/sv/approx/run << EOF
+#!/bin/sh
+echo 'approx starting'
+exec approx -f 2>&1
+EOF
+
+You normally do not need a logging service for approx because it logs
+to syslog too. So just for completion:
+# mkdir -p /etc/sv/approx/log
+# ln -s /var/run/sv.approx.log /etc/sv/approx/log/supervise
+# cat > /etc/sv/approx/log/run << EOF
+#!/bin/sh
+set -e
+LOG="/var/log/approx"
+test -d "$LOG" || mkdir -p -m2750 "$LOG" && chown approxlog:adm "$LOG"
+exec chpst -uapproxlog svlogd -tt -v "$LOG"
+EOF
+
+Now activate the new approx service (will be started within 5s):
+# ln -s /etc/sv/approx/ /var/service/
+
+Make approx managed via runit available via init-script interface:
+# dpkg-divert --local --rename /etc/init.d/approx
+# ln -s /usr/bin/sv /etc/init.d/approx
