Package: tor Version: 0.1.0.15-1.0.1 Severity: important There should not be "exit 0" in /etc/init.d/tor to cover all cases of startup. If process did not start of if it didn't stop, there should be indication of error. Now it always signals ok - only for admin to find out much later that there is something wrong.
