Hi - would like to hear what bugs you reported to no avail. There may well have been good reason they weren't addressed to your satisfaction - or we may have simple not fully appreciated what you were reporting.

Indeed. My bug was that setting/changing a proxy required restarting the service, something the service itself could not complete. I needed this to establish connections to Tor hidden services.

Instead, I fixed this via the DNS resolver daemon within Linux itself, so my systems natively can handle .onion sites. In a way, it was a better fix, since every program is torified if connecting to an .onion .
