[ANNOUNCE] Tor anonymous proxy
 
on my openrepos https://openrepos.net/content/nieldk/tor
needs libevent installed from my repo also.

There are some comments complaining that it removes phone, contactss and aliendalvik. I am not able to reproduce this, so, I fear openrepos is hit by spam/malware ?
but, please do respond if any of you do have issues ....

config file is in /etc/tor/torrc

EDIT,

Added the ability to start/stop tor by pressing the tor desktop icon.

The desktop icon will change colour red=stopped and green=started according to status.

Please UN-INSTALL an previous versions before installing version 0.2.4.23-2, also the unstable alpha-version !

Thanks goes to Schurmann
for his help in creating this switch

SO, It seems there are some issues.
I am doing testing myself, but I cant reproduce the mentioned issues.
For saftety, the libevent and tor RPMs have been removed from openrepos.
Instead, I attachh here SRPM and RPMs for both libevent and tor, and any feedback will be appreciated.
Do be warned, that it might have serious consequences to install ATM eg mentioned issues reported by 3 people now about phone, contacts and aliendalvik being uninstalled.

Yes, since some had issues, I removed it from my openrepos.
I have been testing on my device quite heavily. Installing, deinstalling, reinstalling, libevent and tor, locally and from repos.
So far I have not had any issues, but, surely, I cant deny that its been reported by 3 ppl to me.
So, as you have seen, the damage might be resolvable - when and if it happens :) But, be aware, that installing current version MAY cause issues.

That being said, it would be nice if some daredevils wants to test and report back :)

Hello. I installed (by file browser) and uninstall TOR and everything is in order. Nothing bad happened :D

May be some issues with package naming and conflict occured?

You have deleted application bundle, but sailfish packages are still in place. Check and delete them at https://openrepos.net/my-apps
Update: does aliendalvik support installs own libevent (or something like that)?

Also, do not upload packages with different names to same application node, or order them, main package should be first on the attachment list. Or warehouse will check/install/delete wrong package(i.e. "libevent" instead of "tor"). This can cause issues.

Hmm unable to delete those sailfish packages it seems, when deleting application first.

As a note.
I hardly think its a naming issue for system packages wit same name. I searched. Also, as I said. I cant reproduce this issue on my device.
I have Aliendalvik and it is not being affected. Neither is phone nor contacts.
As for a openrepos issue. I also doubt that, as I have also tried several installs/uninstalls from repo.

I found once possible issue with package name matching using masks, which could caused deletion of "*tor" package.
Fixed in 0.2-4.
