Hello Guix!
I am trying to configure tor daemon to use traffic obfuscation by the
following lines in my system configuration
(service tor-service-type
(tor-configuration
(plain-file "torrc"
"
UseBridges 1
ClientTransportPlugin obfs4 exec /path/to/obfuscator/binary
Bridge obfs4 ......
Bridge obfs4 ......
")))
where /path/to/obfuscator/binary corresponds to an obfs4 obfuscator.
There are a few of them in the guix repo, see e.g.
go-gitlab-torproject-org-tpo-anti-censorship-pluggable-transports-lyrebird
or go-github-com-operatorfoundation-obfs4 packages. The obfuscator is
also installed in the system profile. Bridges are gotten from the
official site https://bridges.torproject.org/.
This torrc configuration works perfectly on guix when tor run at user
level by command '$ tor -f path/to/torrc' and '# netstat -tupan' shows
obfuscator process is listening on 127.0.0.1:[some random port].
However, when tor run as system daemon, there are no obfuscator process
listening and tor is unusable.
Perhaps this issue is related to https://issues.guix.gnu.org/57222.
I have tried to revert commit fb868cd7794f15e21298e5bdea996fbf0dad17ca
on recent guix checkout and then to perform 'guix pull
--url=/path/to/my/local/guix/repo --disable-authentication'. It worked
fined. But when performing 'sudo guix system reconfigure
/path/to/system/configuration' I got an error
'make-forkexec-constructor/container: unbound variable'
