[tor-relays] Tor Fails to Start on Ubuntu 16.04



Hey everyone

I have a fresh install of Ubuntu 16.04 that is unable to start Tor.

Some useful output:

root@tor-1 ~ # uname -a
Linux tor-1 4.4.0-47-generic #68-Ubuntu SMP Wed Oct 26 19:39:52 UTC 2016
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
root@tor-1 ~ # apt-cache policy tor

<and then nothing else as it hangs>

Tor fails to get beyond this message for any config I have tried
(including the default). I tried replacing the systemd unit file with
one of my own and was able to start Tor, however it would crash every 5
minutes (though the logs. The commands used in the systemd file and the
command init.d script are both able to start Tor correctly if I run them
in a TTY as I can see from a second terminal.

Is anyone else running Tor on Xenial, and if so, have they run into this
problem?
