Cover the scenario fixed in "service: clean stale pidfile after unclean daemon exit": a daemon with a pid:!/path config dies via SIGKILL, leaving its pidfile behind, and the next instance must still come up. Add a 'serv -x' flag (refuse to start when the pidfile already exists, dbus-style) so the test actually exercises the cleanup -- without it, plain 'serv' would happily overwrite the file and the test would pass with or without the fix.

Finit is a fast, simple alternative to SysV init and systemd, designed for small and embedded Linux systems. It can also run on desktop and server systems, like finix.

For working examples, see the 🚀 contrib/ section or these tutorials:
- 🛠️ Buildroot embedded Linux,
- 📦 Debian GNU/Linux,
- ⛰️ Alpine Linux, and
- 🌌 Void Linux
Note
Finit can run on various Linux distributions, but the bundled install scripts are examples only. They have been tested on amd64 (x86_64) systems with standard configurations.
For embedded systems, see these Buildroot-based examples: myLinux, Infix, or br2-finit-demo.
