As can be seen in
https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-
relays/2014-February/003908.html
people get confused about the new "You should enable Extended ORPort" log
message.
This is kind of related to #10957 , but in this ticket we should figure
out a better log message for the short term.
We currently log:
{{{We are a bridge with a pluggable transport
proxy but the Extended ORPort is disabled. The Extended ORPort helps Tor
communicate with the pluggable transport proxy. Please enable it using
the ExtORPort torrc option.}}}
we should at least mention that users can simply put `ExtORPort auto` in
their torrc to fix this issue. And maybe we should include a link to
further documentation about ExtORPort on the Internet.
