Comment (by n8fr8):
Just so I am clear, you are not relying on our APT library? Do you have
your build working for all architectures, and loading the binaries from
the libs directory so as to be properly executable? You can't just put
them in the /assets folder anymore. All of this unpacking logic is part of
what the APT library and API provide.
It seems you've just integrated the obfs4proxy build directly into the tor
browser build process. Is this driven by a reproducibility requirement, or
just a "how we do it" decision?
It would ultimately be better for the community of developers interested
in using PT's for you to contribute your efforts into helping us update
and maintain the reusable APT library. This is why we made it, and
previously PLUTO, in the first place, and spent years investing in working
out how to port these things and run them on Android and iOS. Given the
funding for this working came from a shared source, I am sure they would
also appreciate that, as opposed to a forking of efforts and methods.
@eighthave / hc's efforts in updating the build process are focused on the
next step, as we move all the code necessary for making tor-enabled apps
to shared libraries, and not standalone process executables, as we do now.
This will be ultimately necessary for your team, so ideally we can align
efforts here, and work on a shared infrastructure and approach.
