Subject: Re: tor web-browser doesn't work on musl
By what I could find, nobody has compiled the tor web-browser from
source on musl before.
I can't find any packages for it...
I'll try to make a new email and send it to both mailing lists (musl
and tor) then we can talk to them directly.
Thanks for all help so far.
