I'm pretty sure, the second 'backoff=0' should read 'retries=0'.

The loop there increases the backoff time in tenth of seconds for each successive failure, and after success, both 'backoff' as well as 'retries' should be reset.

@Stefan you might be correct. The development of run-one seems stalled for many years, I subscribed Dustin (the maintainer) to see if we get any feedback.

Some MIR archeology shows that run-one has been included in main as a dependency of byobu. I think we should evaluate the possibility of demoting byobu and run-one to universe, see my rationale here:
