in the current Chaos Chalmer repository e.g. tor is in a older version, than in trunk. I just want to upgrade tor to the latest version for security reasons. How can I do that?
If I download the tor_0.2.7.6-1_ar71xx.ipk from trunk and install with:
Have you tried uninstalling the old version of tor before installing the updated version?
Can you help someone else get Gargoyle up and running? TL-WDR3600 : Gargoyle 1.9.0 : NBN FixedWireless

I think that you are going to need to build your own copy of Gargoyle with your preferred version of Tor included. This is not overly difficult but it will involve installing Git, pulling a copy of the Gargoyle code to your local PC, making a minor adjustment to a single text file, building Gargoyle for your router, and installing the image on your router.
I can walk you thru the steps if you are interested.
Currently Gargoyle is using tor-0.2.6.10 and I will bump this to tor-0.2.7.6 shortly.

Thanks for your help! I am generally interested, but will ask you once I have more time. I will just wait, since you said it will be bumped up shortly. For applications such as TOR this is often security relevant.
Another question, if you don't mind me asking: How is TOR integrated into Gargoyle?
I am puzzled because I can not find the "torrc". The options from the webUI are rather basic and the only thing I care about at this point is to have the ability to control my own settings.
In this sense, what is the best way to achieve complete control? So far I basically just overwrote the current installation, but I am not sure if this is the best way to do this.
