DragonFlyBSD
DragonFlyBSD's daily snapshots and releases (starting with 3.4) come with pkg already installed. Upgrades from earlier releases, however, will not have it. If pkg is missing on the system for any reason, it can be quickly bootstrapped without having to build it from source or even having DPorts installed:
# cd /usr
# make pkg-bootstrap
# rehash
# pkg-static install -y pkg
# rehash
- Recommended steps to setup
pkg
Here, it will be similar to what we have on a FreeBSD system, and we are going to use HTTPS to fetch our packages, and updates - so here we also need an extra package to help us out (ca_root_nss).
Installing the ca_root_nss package:
# pkg install ca_root_nss
For fresh installations, the file /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/df-latest.conf.sample is copied to /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/df-latest. The files ending in the ".sample" extension are ignored; pkg(8) only reads files that end in ".conf" and it will read as many as it finds.
DragonflyBSD has 2 packages repositories:
- Avalon (mirror-master.dragonflybsd.org);
- Wolfpond (pkg.wolfpond.org).
We can simply edit the URL used to point out the repositories on /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/df-latest and that's it! Remember to use pkg+https:// for Avalon.
After applying all these changes, we update the packages list again and try to check if there's already a new update to apply:
# pkg update -f
# pkg upgrade -y -f
Install the tor package:
# pkg install tor
NetBSD
Modern versions of the NetBSD operating system can be set to use pkgin, which is a piece of software aimed to be like apt or yum for managing pkgsrc binary packages. We are not convering its setup here, and opt to use plain pkg_add instead.
# echo "PKG_PATH=http://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/$(uname -m)/$(uname -r)/All" > /etc/pkg_install.conf
Install tor NetBSD's package:
# pkg_add tor
Void Linux
To install the tor package on Void Linux, please run:
# xbps-install -S tor
Installing Tor from source
- Download latest release and dependencies
The latest release of Tor can be found on the download page.
If you're building from source, first install libevent, and make sure you have openssl and zlib (including the -devel packages if applicable).
Now you can run tor as src/app/tor (0.4.3.x and later), or you can run make install (as root if necessary) to install it into /usr/local/, and then you can start it just by running tor.
