Package: tsocks
Version: 1.8beta5-6
Severity: wishlist

Hello,

There is a patch to upstream sources available here:

<http://www.totalinfosecurity.com/patches/tor.php>

This patch causes tsocks to utilize Tor for dns lookups on
non-multithreaded applications, eliminating leakage of dns requests on
single calls.

The patch applies successfully to Debian sources for tsocks IF the
Debian patch "getpeername" is eliminated from the debian/patch queue AND
debian/rules is modified to exclude "--enable-hostnames"

Would a fork of the Debian package tsocks be necessary to include this
functionality?

Regards,
Klein
