I went to install a new relay today and found the guide on torproject.org had changed. I used to follow this page: https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-relay-debian.html.en and where it says : If you're on Ubuntu or if you want to track newer Tor packages, follow the Tor on Ubuntu or Debian instructions to use our repository. The link works but this link used to have instructions for installing from the tor project repositories and installing the gpg key. I do not see those instructions now. The debian instructions in section 1 installs tor 0.2.5.12-4

This is a bug on that page. The debian instructions are implemented using a javascript thing that "fills in the blanks" for you, with a <noscript> fallback showing the generic instructions. However, the content-security-policy HTTP header says that inline javascript is prohibited ('unsafe-inline'). So when javascript is enabled, the <noscript> sections are ignored, but the inline javascript isn't run because CSP prohibits it, so nothing is displayed. To whoever can fix this, I would suggest maybe avoiding <noscript>, and instead have the javascript init() function "display:none" the generic instructions at the same time that it turns on the javascript instructions. That would avoid the page just displaying _nothing_ when an error occurs, since that is very confusing. Ideally I'd submit a bug for this, but Trac doesn't seem to let me. (Can regular people create tickets?) If I'm missing something about that, I'd happily submit a bug, or even try to fix this myself if I can be pointed at where the website code is (if it's open for contributions). -- Andrew Deason adeason@dson.org
