You probably didn't read the instructions in the elog.
Comment 2 Jakub Daniel 2012-09-04 15:33:22 UTC
I did not have it set up as its not part of any tutorial for basic gentoo installation. Actually this is the first time i come across elog/eread and i wonder what information i would get there.
Comment 3 Julian Ospald 2012-09-04 15:49:28 UTC
read the instructions after the emerge process

I don't see the need to start a wikipage for this.

also note that torbrowser is currently outdated and is being worked on, so you might want to wait for the next bump which should happen this week someday
