Package: privoxy
Version: 3.0.34-3+b2
Severity: important

Usually the first thing I do after booting is starting firefox. Here
I have to start until privoxy starts which takes aroun two mins.

I purged the package, reinstalled. No change.

I didn't notice a problem with privoxy startup time, so let's try to
track down what's the root cause of your problem is.

privoxy waits for network-online.target before it starts.
Maybe you could check, whether network-online or privoxy is delaying
here.

What do you see in the output of
   systemctl status network-online.target privoxy.service
On my system provoxy starts a the moment when network-online is active
and takes 1 second to start.
Can you see, when network-online is active on your system?  Is it just
after booting or does it also take these two minutes?


I can browse internet via another browser or read mail with thunderbird while privoxy is still starting up. So network is up I have no idea for network-online precisely but still.

Even when the system is up, if I do service privoxy stop and then start it takes long so I bet it is privoxy.


If the former, this isn't a privoxy issue, since privoxy has to wait
for a working network, otherwise it isn't able to bind the interfaces
(this was a problem in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/privoxy/+bug/1870101).

If it's a problem in privoxy, that it is really starting up delayed,
what do you see
  journalctl -u privoxy
or in /varl/log/privoxy/logfile?

I already did that without success. But I can try again.

Maybe you should (temporarily) increase debug level in
/etc/provoxy/config (maybe debug 4096 could be helpful, maybe others,
too).

Does your problem only happen on system startup or can you reproduce
it via
  systemctl stop privoxy; systemctl start privoxy

See above. Will spend some time to debug it but not now.

Greetings
Roland
