 I extracted the tarball into a separate directory (not wanting to
 overwrite global configurations) without changing the `%include`. This
 caused Tor to abort prematurely because it couldn't find the
 `/etc/tor/torrc.d/` directory and didn't reproduce the issue. The
 description in comment:3 lead me down the wrong path so in the end i
 wasn't able to reproduce it.

 Changing the `%include` to the `torrc.d` directory in my extraction
 directory and the STR from comment:12 both reproduce the issue on my side
 now.

 I agree with comment:13 that the 3-star (reference
 [http://wiki.c2.com/?ThreeStarProgrammer]) pointer is less than ideal.
