I have just installed a fresh copy of NuTyX 22.12. I have updated it and restarted the system. I have then installed Tor from the NuTyX repository.
Tor installed fine. But when running it (
tor,
tor --version, etc.) I get an error:
tor: symbol lookup error: tor: undefined symbol: evutil_secure_rng_add_bytes
I have tried restarting the system, reinstalling it, reinstalling it after changing my init system to
systemd (
http://nutyx.org/en/default-init-system). Nothing worked. I keep getting the same error.
I have looked up this error and found, that multiple people had this exact error on BSD-based systems. Their problem was erroneous
libevent. I have installed both
libevent and
libevent.devel (
libevent was reinstalled with 4 additional files). Restarted the system. That did not help.
Now I have realised, that
sudo systemctl status tor
returns
Unit tor.service could not be found.
and running
ss | grep 9050
(9050 is the default Tor port) returns nothing. I have even run
ss
to see, if Tor occupied a different port, but it is nowhere to be seen.
I am lost right now. I was planning to build Tor from source, but I am not sure, if I am missing something. Is it possible to fix this error without installing Tor from source?
P.S.
I think, this is the Tor repository:
https://github.com/torproject/tor.
Best Regards!
