Package: devuan-installer
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

Partly copied from
https://bugs.devuan.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=444

------ start of copy
(1) https://beta.devuan.org/os/documentation/install-guides/beowulf/img/025initchoice.png
says that a user can choose sysvinit versus openrc.
When "openrc" is chosen, PID 1 is /sbin/init and it is from the sysvinit-core package,
not the openrc-init. The choice made by the Devuan Installer Beta 2 is the one
between sysv-rc and openrc packages. If it is intended,  texts in
https://beta.devuan.org/os/documentation/install-guides/beowulf/img/025initchoice.png
have to be revised.

(2) If the above (1) is considered a bug (I think so), to which package a bug report is
filed by reportbug? It seems undocumented.
------ end of copy

By the way, if the Devuan installer is updated to provice a choice in /sbin/init,
I wonder if runit-init can be included in the choices.

Best regards, Ryutaroh Matsumoto
