OpenBSD Ports for the Tor Browser Bundle (TBB)

These are the OpenBSD ports that correspond to the Tor browser bundle. They are a work in progress. Please beware that until we make release announcements on our web site you should be careful using this stuff. You must be runing OpenBSD -current and have your ports and src synced up (like I said: running -current).

Branches and Versions

As of 05 Feb 2016 the master branch has release 5.5:

ff-esr            38.6.0
torbutton         1.9.4.3
tor-launcher      0.2.7.8
noscript          2.9.0.2
https-everywhere  5.1.2

The develop branch is always used to work on the next release.

We use tags to mark release points that correspond as closely as possible to TBB releases. They are marked "-sans-pt" to indicate that Pluggable Transports (PT) is not yet a part of this set of ports (e.g. tbb-5.5-sans-pt). There may also be fixes, which are tagged ...-fixN, e.g. tbb-5.5-sans-pt-fix1, -fix2, ...

Repositories

Most of the ports in this repo pull their source tarballs from other GH torbsd repositories. This is because the Tor project chooses not to make source tarballs easily available for anything except tor itself (their gitian-based build process does not require them). Also, the OpenBSD ports system explicitly supports pointing at GH projects. I maintain the tags and branches in these repositories and track changes in the tor project's git repositories. Where possible I prefer to have ports pull source from some authoritative download area maintained by the project itself; in the case of noscript I do this, for example.

Beware: Experimental Until Otherwise Stated

This is still work in progress. Until we make an official release statement you should use this only if you want to help in testing.
