[tor-bugs] Shallot problems

[John Tate]

I am having problems creating custom addresses with shallot. I wrote
to its developer but I can't seem to get a hold of him. When I create
a private key with shallot, it is supposed to point to a specific Tor
address. I've never had the problem before with that build of Shallot,
but I recently updated Tor and my servers operating system. Basically
when I put the key in tor a different onion hostname comes out.

$ ./shallot ^asrvr
