[gentoo-user] problem with runit ebuild

[covici]

Hi.  There was an update to runit which I got in my latest world update
and it played havock with my system.  It moved things into my
/etc/runit/runsvdir/default which I had deleted and so I had agettys all
over the place, it was a mess.  Isn't that directory supposed to be
protected so I can fix config file changes they  might do?

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Files in CONFIG_PROTECTed directories are protected, they won't be
renamed, removed or changed, but new files and directories can be
installed by portage
