Hello,
Thanks for your advice! I had installed obfsproxy with apt-get on a Pi.
I removed that and tried pip. It took me a while to find out that pip
was actually python-pip. (Maybe the Tor website could be more specific
about that.) That install went well. You asked me to see what happened
after the command '/usr/bin/obfsproxy managed'. It took me a while to
find that obfsproxy was installed in /usr/local/ , not in /usr/bin/ .
And now, until further notice from tor, things seem to work fine.
Thanks,
J. Chase
