Hello.

I think this might be a bug. Could you try replacing the two calls to
the non-portable "which" command with "command -v". The two lines you
mentioned should look like this afterwards:

    local app_path="`command -v $1`"
    local getcap="`PATH="$PATH:/usr/sbin:/sbin" command -v getcap`"

Please report back if this works and we will get a patch into torsocks
to fix the issue for other people with a system that lacks the which
command :-)

Cheers,
Alex.
