Indeed, however neither program's purpose is to 'plug dns leaks'.
They simply feed what connection [dns] requests they receive on towards Tor.

I've gotten used to connecting to my middleman node on the home LAN
so that I don't even know what's the current proper way to run
a tor/browser bundle or a browsing appliance on Ubuntu on a netbook

Which packages to you people use for that? Why?

There was a somewhat extended discussion
