bit Notice: I had *Not* modified base-runitserv prior to updating. I'll begin by apologizing for not reporting this the day it happened. Which would be 4 days ago. When I ran pacman -Syu, everything was fine except: warning: directory permissions differ on /etc/runit/svopts/base-runitserv/ filesystem: 744 package: 755 I then promptly chmod'd base-runitserv to 0755 because it was suggested [0]. However it was also advised to either report to the maintainer [1] or ignore it [2].

eric files within /etc/runit/svopts/base-runitserv/ should be used only by svopts scripts. svopts use it as scheme when you ask for creating service with the option create. So make those executable files,but for what? if you want to avoid this warning message, change the permissions.
bit if you want to avoid this warning message, change the permissions. I already stated that I had done that in the original post, please read it again....
