I used portmaster to install it from security/tor-devel in the FreeBSD ports tree. > /usr/share/tor/tor-service-defaults-torrc > (these are the default defaults, if you will). > In FreeBSD, anything from ports and packages normally gets installed somewhere under /usr/local, not /usr. /usr/local/share/tor contains only two files, geoip and geoip6.

This is the first time in many years that I have built and installed tor from the ports tree, and I had forgotten all about the script. This sort of nonsense was one of several reasons I took to building tor manually and apart from the ports system. I would have done so again, except that 0.2.4.3-alpha was the last version that I was able to compile and have execute correctly. The port apparently chooses a set of build configuration options that works, so I used it. :-( So the makefile for the port replaced the old, slightly tailored version of that script that I had used for any years. :-( I guess I"m going to delve further into what it will take to resume building and installing tor outside the ports system.
