Replying to [comment:10 mr-4]:
> So, I think the tor code should be changed slightly so that the
behaviour in "post" and "during" is consistent with "pre" boot scenario -
if datadir doesn't exist, recreate it and if a specific file doesn't
exist, do the same.
Hm. I think that generally, it's a bit questionable to expect that Tor
should always recover from having parts of its data directory deleted from
beneath it: this is not a supported operation. Still, that wouldn't be
out of the question: opening a new ticket for that.
