Package: apt-transport-tor Version: 0.3 It would be convenient if it was easier to switch APT to use package sources via Tor. What about providing a script in the apt-transport-tor package, rewriting all the current APT sources in /etc/apt/ to use the .onion addresses listed on <URL: https://onion.debian.org/ >? This would make the process into a simple three step solution:
apt install apt-transport-tor /usr/share/apt-transport-tor/convert-apt-sources apt update The script could do simple sed tranformations, something like this to every sources.list file for each hostname: sed -i 's%http://ftp.debian.org%tor+http://vwakviie2ienjx6t.onion%' \ /etc/apt/sources.list What do you think of the idea? Would you like to maintain such script as part of the apt-transport-tor package? -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen
