Public bug reported: [Impact]
* Ubuntu Server 20.04 LTS (focal) is a good basis for running a Tor bridge, helping censored users to access the Tor network. A setup guide for Ubuntu is provided by the Tor project [1]. The Tor bridge requires the package obfs4proxy, which is available in version 0.0.8-1 (universe). * The outdated version in focal, 0.0.8-1, is responsible for error messages in the log from Tor Browser and causes slow and possibly failing connection (bootstrap) to the Tor network, see related bug report [2]. The more recent version of obfs4proxy solves the issue [3, 4]. [Scope] * The package obfs4proxy is available as version 0.0.13-1 in jammy * Please backport to focal [Other Info] * The package obfs4proxy is available as version 0.0.13-1~bpo11+1 in Debian bullseye-backports [References] [1] https://community.torproject.org/relay/setup/bridge/debian-ubuntu/ [2] https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/applications/tor-browser/-/issues/40804 [3] https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/anti-censorship/bridgestrap/-/issues/32 [4] https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/anti-censorship/pluggable-transports/obfs4/-/issues/33736 ** Affects: obfs4proxy (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1967003 Title: [BPO] obfs4proxy/0.0.13-1 from jammy To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/obfs4proxy/+bug/1967003/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
