(In reply to comment #0) Erm... man tor: <snip> -f FILE FILE contains further "option value" pairs. (Default: /etc/tor/torrc) </snip> I also don't have any /var/lib/tor/.tor and the whole thing generally works perfectly fine and honors what's the default per the above manpage. So, if you could tell us how to reproduce the issue, that'd really help. I have played with the source tarball, turns out that Tor's configure script uses CONFDIR environment variable if it is set. So steps to reproduce: setenv CONFDIR to something, then emerge. Now, it can be argued that it's not a bug, but a feature, but at least for me it caused a big non-obvious problem, since /etc/init.d/tor validates against /etc/tor/torrc explicitly. I suggest unsetting CONFDIR in the ebuild (if it's defined). |
