Just to touch base on this, and to give a rough status of where things are. The tor codebase no longer includes the C tor-fw-helper as of: d2cb92332009567ae778b3570e8fd3420c207446 Closes https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/13338 The new (Go based code) now lives at: https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor-fw-helper.git/ I changed the import paths and what not so that: $ go get git.torproject.org/tor-fw-helper.git/tor-fw-helper $ $GOPATH/bin/tor-fw-helper Does the right thing, at least on my box. In theory as long as the toolchain is properly setup, this will work on Linux, *BSD, OSX, and Windows, though it has been a while since I tested non-Linux (no major functional changes were made so I expect it to still work). If people don't like Go for some reason, they can write a functional replacement in $languageOfChoice, though unless they use library code, it is Not Very Fun.

I don't quite have time to do the man page at the moment, but once that is done, I'll tag, and put signed tarballs up somewhere sensible. Since there are no dependencies required beyond a new-ish Go compiler, this should be utterly trivial to package. I'll try to do this sooner rather than later, but no promises since IRL stuff is on fire for the remainder of the week. Regards, -- Yawning Angel
