tor 0.4.1.5-1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

tor (0.4.1.5-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream version; upload 0.4.1.x to unstable.
  * Fix three typos in README.Debian.
  * Avoid setting DEB_HOST_ARCH_OS in debian/rules as that should be
    pre-initialized nowadays.
  * tor-geoipdb: change from priority extra to optional as the former is
    obsolete.
  * Set Standards-Version to 4.4.0.
  * The fix for #930113, runit support, added an /etc/tor/conf to
    set the ulimit -n when run under runit.  That directory is a bad place.
    It confuses users, nowhere is it apparent that only runit cares about that
    directory and that e.g. sysV or systemd don't.   Get rid of that
    directory and the MAX_FILEDESCRIPTORS file in it and set a reasonable
    default in the runit script if MAX_FILEDESCRIPTORS is not already set.

tor: anonymizing overlay network for TCP

 Tor is a connection-based low-latency anonymous communication system.
 .
 Clients choose a source-routed path through a set of relays, and
 negotiate a "virtual circuit" through the network, in which each relay
 knows its predecessor and successor, but no others. Traffic flowing
 down the circuit is decrypted at each relay, which reveals the
 downstream relay.
 .
 Basically, Tor provides a distributed network of relays. Users bounce
 their TCP streams (web traffic, ftp, ssh, etc) around the relays, and
 recipients, observers, and even the relays themselves have difficulty
 learning which users connected to which destinations.
 .
 This package enables only a Tor client by default, but it can also be
 configured as a relay and/or a hidden service easily.
 .
 Client applications can use the Tor network by connecting to the local
 socks proxy interface provided by your Tor instance. If the application
 itself does not come with socks support, you can use a socks client
 such as torsocks.
 .
 Note that Tor does no protocol cleaning on application traffic. There
 is a danger that application protocols and associated programs can be
 induced to reveal information about the user. Tor depends on Torbutton
 and similar protocol cleaners to solve this problem. For best
 protection when web surfing, the Tor Project recommends that you use
 the Tor Browser Bundle, a standalone tarball that includes static
 builds of Tor, Torbutton, and a modified Firefox that is patched to fix
 a variety of privacy bugs.
