#11946: `Error setting configured user: debian-tor not found` with Sandbox, running
as relay

 Priority:  normal     |      Milestone:  Tor: 0.2.5.x-final

-----------------------+------------------------------------
 When `Sandbox 1` is set, tor is unable to start as a relay running under
 the debian-tor user.  This may be related to #11609; I don't remember
 testing the patch with ORPort set.  tor is started from init.d script as
 provided in torproject.org repo, but the binary is compiled from source.

 /var/log/tor/log:

 configure:
 `./configure --disable-asciidoc --prefix=/usr --localstatedir=/var
 --sysconfdir=/etc --with-tor-user=debian-tor --with-tor-group=debian-tor`

 /usr/share/tor/tor-service-defaults-torrc:

 torrc:
 {{{

 }}}

 Disabling Sandbox or ORPort will allow Tor to start normally.  Problem
 also exists in b54669bc007adcbe826ec6a531c1719979c06f0b with patch from
 #11609 applied, so it doesn't appear to be a regression from the
 0.2.5.4-alpha release.
