Comment (by nusenu):

 Replying to [comment:6 arma]:
 > nusenu: right, the tor-relay-debian page did indeed assume you were
 using the deb.

 More specifically it did assume a configuration with ControlSocket
 enabled. The torrc in the relay-guide specifically disables ControlSocket
 on Debian-based systems to have a minimal attack surface (not everyone
 needs ControlSockets enabled so we disabled it by default on Debian based
 systems to restore vanilla tor defaults).
