Package: tor
Version: 0.2.5.12-1
Severity: minor
Hi
I'd like to switch virtual circuits in some cases.
I can do that interactively using vidalia "New identity" option. So I looked
in the manual how it's done. But tor manual says "using the Tor Control
Protocol (described in control-spec.txt)."
However, there is no such file in Debian. I tried apt-file search.
This file should be added in the package, or the manual should be fixed.
