* Conflict with old libssls.
* On upgrading from versions prior to, including, 0.1.2.19-2, or
from versions later than 0.2.0 and prior to 0.2.0.26-rc do the
following, and if we are a server (we have a /var/lib/tor/keys
directory)
- move /var/lib/tor/keys/secret_onion_key out of the way.
- move /var/lib/tor/keys/secret_onion_key.old out of the way.
- move /var/lib/tor/keys/secret_id_key out of the way if it was
created on or after 2006-09-17, which is the day the bad
libssl was uploaded to Debian unstable.
* Add a NEWS file explaining this change.

Tor only provides TCP layer anonymity. It does not do any protocol cleaning, so if you are going to browse the web you still give away a lot of information to servers. The privoxy package provides a privacy enhancing HTTP proxy, which is good at filtering headers, cookies, and much more. To view the description of the Debian privoxy package just run "apt-cache show privoxy". Please refer to the privoxy documentation for more details. In order to use privoxy over tor, add the following line to your privoxy configuration file: forward-socks4a / localhost:9050 . (the dot is important) Then configure your browser to use privoxy as its HTTP proxy. -- Peter Palfrader <weasel@debian.org>, Tue, 17 Feb 2004 02:15:36 +0100
