Comment:
Sebastian found the cause. New versions of tor default DirReqStatistics to
being true, and if the geoip is unavailable then this is changed...
{{{
if (geoip_is_loaded()) {
geoip_dirreq_stats_init(now);
print_notice = 1;
} else {
options->DirReqStatistics = 0;
}}}
On reflection the issue for arm is that I'm making the assumption that tor
uses the configurations the user gives, and if it differs then they should
be alerted. This is the first time (that I'm aware of) that tor alters its
own config so if you start tor with torrc X, then issue a SAVECONF right
away, the saved torrc will functionally differ from X.
Adding an exemption for this option to the warning.
