oh no! does that mean txtorcon will eventually be removed from debian?

Will get this packaged over the weekend. (:
Sweet :)
Got distracted over the weekend but starting on this now.
For those interested, I am also packaging txtorcon for jessie-backports and for Ubuntu suites on deb.tpo, as this is a dependency of ooniprobe.
FWIW, I have seen a few warnings recently about txtorcon being removed from testing because tor will be. But, I'm not sure that tor should be a *dependency* of txtorcon (just recommended). Obviously, it's not going to be super useful without a Tor to talk to ;) but you might have built tor yourself from source etc. (or even have it running on a different machine).
Everything in the Debian archive should be able to run with only things installed from the Debian archive. Debian policy requires that Tor be a dependency of txtorcon as without Tor, it's pretty useless.
The warnings do seem to have gone away now, so I guess Tor is fixed. (:
Thanks, Iain.
