Because Tor is not started:
$ torsocks wget -qO- https://check.torproject.org/ | grep -i congratulations
1666335386 PERROR torsocks[30029]: socks5 libc connect: Connection refused (in
socks5_connect() at socks5.c:202)
I do not think that package that is supposed to provide browsing shall
supposedly automate activation of Tor. That shall be optional. It
needs instructions for user to understand that it requires Tor, but
why it should require it? There is no reason for it. Using Tor is
generally useful, but there is no reason for browsing package to
require it.
After:
$ sudo rc-service tor start
* /run/tor: creating directory
* /run/tor: correcting owner
* Starting tor ...
$ torsocks wget -qO- https://check.torproject.org/ | grep -i congratulations
Congratulations. This browser is configured to use Tor.
Congratulations. This browser is configured to use Tor.
If you only say that `torsocks' is to activate it all, then there is
problem, as Tor does not run in background.
Think of usability of the package for browsing.
Further, it seems I can't access any of the links:
error in process sentinel: save-excursion: Args out of range: #<buffer
*luwak*>, 0, 70
error in process sentinel: Args out of range: #<buffer *luwak*>, 0, 70
Further, I think that numbered links shall be activated by using
numbers: 12 RET to activate link number 12.
