#21541: The Tor package should save a relay identity through updates
----------------------------------+------------------------
Reporter: mah@… | Owner: developers
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone:
Component: packages | Version: Trunk
Keywords: tor, upgrade, backup |
----------------------------------+------------------------
Upgrading a router which runs a Tor node currently results in loss of its
identity in the Tor network. This can be avoided easily by saving /
backing up identity files. These files are
/var/lib/tor/fingerprint
/var/lib/tor/keys/*
The package conveniently makes sure already to save /etc/tor/torrc across
updates, so it shouldn't be too complicated to add these other two.
