	In /var/log/install.log there should be a listing of errors
	encountered during the install of the package.  Can you send
	those to me and I'll take a look at it?
	
	The first line of the section you want to look at for errors is:
	"Tor - Privoxy Bundle Installation Log"
	lots of lines later, you should see:
	"postflight[21752]: Creating account for _tor..."

		The error as to why _tor could not be created should be
		right below that line.
	
	Thanks!
