[Privoxy-users] Error installing privoxy (debian)

[erick.mendaz at elude.in]

Hello! I found that since I had disabled ipv6, I was unable to run. Now
it's working, I took the test at check.torproject.org. It worked. But, my
ipv6 address was visible (https://whatismyip.live/). Do you know how to
solve this problem?

Another: I noticed that when checking the services (systemctl status tor
privoxy), tor activity is activated, but "exited". Look:

root at debian:/home/voyager1# systemctl status tor privoxy
