Comment 1 Enrico Scholz 2009-12-13 12:08:02 UTC
[cc of bug 539558#c1]
that's a bug caused by broken redhat-lsb package; tor itself requires only
'lsb-core-noarch' which does not need cvs or x11.

When you need a slim system,

a) make enough noise so that RH fixes its core packages, or
b) install 'tor-core' + 'tor-upstart' (instead of 'tor-lsb')
