Comment:
Hi vilhelmgray! Thanks for the bug report and the patch.
I'm wondering if this is in fact a Gentoo bug, since in the standard
configuration, the `--PIDFile` option isn't given to tor through systemd.
(My understanding is that this is because systemd has its own system for
keeping track of PIDs, i.e. and so using `$MAINPID` is the most systemd-
ish way to do this.) Since Gentoo appears to have enabled `PIDFile`, they
should probably also make sure that the place they are attempting to write
to is actually available. Perhaps the Gentoo packagers would be willing
to either take your patch or otherwise remove `--PIDFile`?
Feel free to reopen if I've misunderstood something… I'm not the most
systemd-inclined person and my only experience is through setting up VMs
for various services in Qubes.
