Package: privoxy
Version: 3.0.9-1
Severity: normal
By default on new debian installs, localhost is not 127.0.0.1, but
instead 127.0.1.1. [1]
Privoxy is configured to listen on 127.0.0.1 only, by default.
gnome-network-preferences has a proxy config that defaults to localhost
port 8118.
So, a quick try at getting privoxy working with gnome will result in
the web browser connecting to the wrong address, which privoxy is not
listening on.
Since there are still plenty of systems where localhost is 127.0.0.1
(old installs, manual hosts file edits, etc), changing the IP address
in the default config doesn't seem wise. Why not just configure it as
follows:
listen-address localhost:8118
That seems to work ok.

* If there is no permanent IP address with which the system hostname
(i.e., that which is returned by the "hostname" command) can be
associated in /etc/hosts then associate it with address 127.0.1.1
rather than 127.0.0.1. Associating the system hostname with the
latter had the unwanted effect of making 'localhost.localdomain'
the canonical hostname associated with the system hostname.
That is, 'hostname --fqdn' returned 'localhost.localdomain'.
(Closes: #316099)
Programs that access local services at the IP address obtained by
resolving the system hostname SHOULD NOT DO THIS, but those that
do so will not be disappointed: most services that listen locally
listen on all 127/8 addresses, not just on 127.0.0.1.

Description:
privoxy - Privacy enhancing HTTP Proxy
Closes: 179461 479525 491423 512888
Changes:
privoxy (3.0.10-2) unstable; urgency=low
.
* IPv6 patch added again: 03_ipv6: privoxy-3.0.10-ipv6-all-6.diff by
Petr Písař (Closes: #179461).
It seems that the old bugs #391600 and #393605, which appeared with
the previous version, are fixed now.
* 28_listen_localhost: Listen on localhost:8118 instead of 127.0.0.1:8118,
because this is independent from localhost IP (127.0.0.1 vs. 127.0.1.1)
and also supports IPv6 (Closes: #512888).
* 05_default_action: unblock qa.debian.org/popcon-graph.php (Closes: #479525)
* Create log dir in init script, if it does not exist (Closes: #491423).
