Package: vidalia
Version: 0.1.12-1
Severity: wishlist
By default the tor daemon runs with the user debian-tor, but the Vidalia
settings do not
offer an easy way to accommodate this. Actually I don't know any way of
setting Vidalia
to control the daemon running as debian-tor.
Ideally Vidalia would come preconfigured or could be easily configured
for the Debian
situation.
While I can run once Vidalia as root/other_user, I would never run a
daemon with
another user than the default from Debian configuration, because I don't
know the security
implications. For this reason, while the bug is a whishlist one, it
actually prevents me
from using Vidalia.
