Replying to [comment:1 arma]:
> Isn't it?
It's still inside the Tor Debian package.
> Doesn't torsocks need some sort of config file to point tsocks at?
I don't know that. I am only pointing out, that it seems redundant to me
to have /etc/torsocks.conf (which really exists at time of writing after
installing the torsocks Debian package) and also having a /etc/tor/tor-
tsocks.conf.
> Or are you suggesting that we fold those defaults into torsocks, so it
will work fine without a config file?
If that is necessary, yes. torsocks configures these values in it's own
configuration file /etc/torsocks.conf already anyway.
> Or wait, this a Tor ticket -- are you suggesting that we should modify
the Tor deb, since the torsocks deb has a different config file?
Yes.
> Lots of options here. Which ticket is this?
Well, I am sorry, I don't know that for sure. I just don't see why it
needs two configuration files if the first configuration file already
contains all that is required. By the way the /etc/tor/tor-tsocks.conf has
never had any effect for me anyway. All that torsocks does, is defined in
/etc/torsocks.conf.
