[Tails-dev] Please keep torsocks!

2016-11-18 Thread Anonymous
I noticed in the changelog for tails (3.0~alpha1): "Use torsocks to torify Git, and drop tsocks entirely. tsocks has been unmaintained for years in Debian, and was removed from testing for a while (Closes: #10955)." Is torsocks the same as tsocks? I certainly hope torsocks remains in Tails, I
