Comment(by asn):
Please see branch `bug5602` in
`https://git.gitorious.org/mytor/mytor.git`.
It makes the log message more informative, but it also makes it similar to
the one that `validate_pluggable_transports_config()` is giving out:
{{{
May 18 22:03:26.000 [warn] We were supposed to connect to bridge
'222.222.222.222:1151' using pluggable transport 'obfs2', but it seems
that we can't find a pluggable transport proxy supporting 'obfs2'. Please
make sure that your configuration file is valid.
May 18 22:03:26.000 [warn] We can't find a pluggable transport proxy that
supports 'obfs2' for bridge '222.222.222.222:1151'. This can happen if you
haven't provided a ClientTransportPlugin line, or if your pluggable
transport proxy stopped working.
}}}
I'm wondering if `connection_or_connect()` is a good place to give out
this warning, and if it can replace
`validate_pluggable_transports_config()` (which is also the subject of
silly bugs like #5589). Specifically, I'm thinking whether there are any
cases where `connection_or_connect()` is not called, even though the
user's configuration is wrong.
If `connection_or_connect()` is a good place to warn about non-existent
ClientTransportPlugin lines, maybe we can simply remove
`validate_pluggable_transports_config()`.
