# Sometimes epoll is broken.  This happens to be the case on
# at least the maintainer's desktop box running Linux 2.6.11-rc1
# on adm64.
#
# If tor does not work at all for you, i.e. connection attempts
# through tor just hang forever and never finish, then consider
# setting EVENT_NOEPOLL, so libevent does not use epoll.  If that
# happens to fix it for you, please let the mainainer (weasel@debian.org)
# know, mentioning your kernel version, libevent version, and architecture.
# Thanks!
