Comment:

 So the idea is to use a more lightweight image, like alpine, and copy a
 statically-compiled tor binary into the image? I like the idea of making
 our image more lightweight but I worry about the additional complexity in
 the build process. For example, we also need to include Tor's GeoIP
 database because otherwise the bridge won't be reporting the country codes
 of its clients. Debian's tor package depends on tor-geoipdb, which takes
 care of this for us.
