+I get selinux error messages. How can I fix this?
+
+ Please report the problem to the creator of your selinux policies.
+
+
+ The problem is that some selinux policy writers aren't familiar
+ with the application they are trying to secure
and
+ thus create policies that make no sense.
+
+
+ In Privoxy's case the problem usually
+ is that the policy only allows outgoing connections for certain
+ destination ports (e.g. 80 and 443). While this may cover the
+ standard ports, websites occasionally use other ports as well.
+ This isn't a security problem and therefore Privoxy's
+ default configuration doesn't block these requests.
+
+
+ If you really want to block these ports (and don't be able
+ to load websites that don't use standard ports), you should
+ configure Privoxy to block these ports as well, so it doesn't
+ trigger the selinux warnings.
+
+
+
+
+
+I compiled &my-app; with Gentoo's portage and it appears to be very slow. Why?
+
+ Probably you unintentionally compiled &my-app; without threading support
+ in which case requests have to be serialized and only one can be served
+ at the same time.
+
+
+ Check your USE
flags and make sure they include
+ threads
. If they don't, add the flag and rebuild &my-app;.
+
+
+ If you compiled &my-app; with threading support (on POSIX-based systems),
+ the Conditional #defines
section on http://config.privoxy.org/show-status
+ will list FEATURE_PTHREAD
as enabled
.
