Kushal Das: Tor rpm package repository for Fedora and CentOS/RHEL

Now we have official Tor RPM repositories for Fedora, CentOS/RHEL. The support documentation is already in place.

Using this repository, you can get the latest Tor build for your distribution from the upstream project itself. Tor already provides similar packages for Debian/Ubuntu systems.

How to enable the repository in your Fedora box?

Add the following to the /etc/yum.repos.d/tor.repo.

[tor]
name=Tor for Fedora $releasever - $basearch
baseurl=https://rpm.torproject.org/fedora/$releasever/$basearch
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=https://rpm.torproject.org/fedora/public_gpg.key
cost=100

Then you can install the package via regular dnf command.

$ sudo dnf install tor

You will have to import the new keys used for signing these packages.

Importing GPG key 0x3621CD35:
Userid : "Kushal Das (RPM Signing key) <kushal@torproject.org>"
Fingerprint: 999E C8E3 14BC 8D46 022D 6C7D E217 C30C 3621 CD35
From : https://rpm.torproject.org/fedora/public_gpg.key
Is this ok [y/N]: y

If you run a Tor relay (which you all should, one of the easiest ways to contribute to the project and help people worldwide) on CentOS/RHEL, you can use similar repository configuration.
