If so it makes sense. But, for me, an all machines where i installed tor
(debian, ubuntu, arch) the tor config file (/etc/tor/torrc) always came
with port 9050 as default.

I quote from the untouched default file 'torrc':

[quote]
## Tor opens a socks proxy on port 9050 by default -- even if you don't
## configure one below. Set "SocksPort 0" if you plan to run Tor only
## as a relay, and not make any local application connections yourself.
SocksPort 9050 # Default: Bind to localhost:9050 for local connections.
[/quote]

So????
