If you get this working, please submit a patch to the Debian bug tracker.
No problem! But please forgive my ignorance, could you please explain a little bit more to me that why I should report it to Debian BTS, instead of tpo? In other words, what is the relationship between packages.debian.org and deb.torproject.org?
According to cypherpunks[0]:
The first released tor version with this feature is 0.3.1.1-alpha. As usual there will be alpha packages on deb.torproject.org
If you want this feature _now_ you can use the nightly builds: https://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org/dists/tor-nightly-master-str
etch
However,
the highest tor version in Debian BTS right now is 3.0.8-1.[1], which means the feature has not been included into Debian?
My current thought is deb.torproject.org is the upstream of packages.debian.org in terms of tor package. So a change made in deb.torproject.org will be adopted by packages.debian.org after a while.
My understanding is that: * git.torproject.org is the upstream for a lot of different packagers, * bugs in git.torproject.org are reported on trac.torproject.org (there is no debian packages component on the tor trac)
* for debian packages, deb.torproject.org is the upstream of packages.debian.org, * bugs for debian packages are reported on the debian bug tracker
Debian was just in a distribution release freeze, so I'm not sure when they will update their version. But I'm sure they would appreciate a patch when they do upgrade.
... The Tor version I tested was:
Tor version 0.3.1.3-alpha-dev (git-a73d0fe9a87df762+b433dff)
