Hey everyone
I have a fresh install of Ubuntu 16.04 that is unable to start Tor.
Some useful output:
root@tor-1 ~ # uname -a Linux tor-1 4.4.0-47-generic #68-Ubuntu SMP Wed Oct 26 19:39:52 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux root@tor-1 ~ # apt-cache policy tor tor: Installed: 0.2.8.9-1~xenial+1 Candidate: 0.2.8.9-1~xenial+1 Version table: *** 0.2.8.9-1~xenial+1 500 500 http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org xenial/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status root@tor-1 ~ # journalctl -u tor ...

Nov 13 00:52:39 tor-1 systemd[1]: Started Anonymizing overlay network for TCP (multi-instance-master). <and then nothing else as it hangs>
Tor fails to get beyond this message for any config I have tried (including the default). I tried replacing the systemd unit file with one of my own and was able to start Tor, however it would crash every 5 minutes (though the logs. The commands used in the systemd file and the command init.d script are both able to start Tor correctly if I run them in a TTY as I can see from a second terminal.
Is anyone else running Tor on Xenial, and if so, have they run into this problem?
