Comment(by ioerror):
I just cloned git://github.com/nmathewson/shim.git and it works reasonable
well:
I ran shim like so:
{{{
shim -l 127.0.0.1 -p 8119 -v socks4a://127.0.0.1:9050
}}}
I ran gpg (as an example program that needs http proxy suppport) like so:
{{{
gpg --keyserver-options http-proxy=http://127.0.0.1:8119,debug,verbose
--search jacob at appelbaum.net
}}}
shim reported the connection:
{{{
conn: socks server set to 127.0.0.1:9050
proxy: listening on 127.0.0.1:8119
proxy: new client connection from 127.0.0.1:44932
proxy: closing idle client connection.
}}}
gpg was happy and downloaded the proper key as expected. Sadly, gpg leaked
the DNS request.
