I think for now, I got it working using 'nobody' as the user, so I'll leave it 
like that.  The main reason for having its own user is for use in firewall 
rules, but that's an advanced case, so chances are that user could switch the 
user manually.

I saw you asking on #fink asking about making a 'tor' user.  Adding a 
new passwd-* user should be easy, though this would be the first stand 
alone user that is not part of the passwd-core set of files.  I had 
previously tested making a new user (for quagga) and have a .info 
candidate, but never got around to committing it [1].  Feel free to take 
that and use it as a template for your tor user.  It should only need 
string replacements for what 'tor' needs.  Please test carefully since I 
haven't touched it in 8 months, but it /should/ work.  If it does, check 
again before committing in case something policy related comes up.

That's fine.

If a maintainer doesn't get back to you after a reasonable interval 
(like a week), then it's normally OK to email this list and do the update.

[Fink-devel] 'tor' packages

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

I pushed updates for the Tor packages in fink in 10.5 and 10.6. I'm going to 
add it to 10.7 also.  I emailed Jack Fink, the listed maintainer, back in May 
but didn't get any response, so I thought it would be OK to go ahead and do it.

Hope I didn't step on any toes.
