     Type:  defect      |         Status:  new
 Priority:  trivial     |      Milestone:
Component:  Tor         |        Version:  Tor: unspecified
 Keywords:              |  Actual Points:
Parent ID:              |         Points:
------------------------+----------------------------------
 As noted by a Fedora user [1], when running Tor as a regular user it
 creates "$HOME/.tor" instead of "$XDG_CACHE_HOME/.tor", which is advised
 by the XDG specification [2] for user-specific non-essential (cached)
 data. Would you consider adhering to this specification?
