Thanks for submitting this bug to Debian!

So based on that, my understanding is:

This is a bit of a wishlist bug in Debian, since AppArmor isn't
installed in Debian by default, and this only affects one specific mode
of operation in Vidalia. Is this accurate?

But in Ubuntu, AppArmor is installed by default, so this specific mode
of operation in Vidalia doesn't work by default. Right?

So it might make sense to apply a patch temporarily in Ubuntu until
there's a more general fix and confinement is added for non-root Tor use
from Vidalia. Or perhaps it's better to require the user to apply this
workaround so that the user understands that Tor isn't going to run
confined as it otherwise would.

What do you think?
