<b> Hey! </b>
If you are <b>not</b> using Debian or Ubuntu, you better look
<a href="<page projects/obfsproxy-instructions>">at this other guide</a>
which sets up Obfsproxy from source.
</p>
<br><br>
<p>
This is a <b>Debian/Ubuntu</b> guide for installing the Python
version of obfsproxy. If you are still using the C version, we
recommend you to upgrade to the Python version!
</p>
<h3>Step 0: Install a recent version of Tor (>= 0.2.4.1)</h3>
<br>
<p>
Add the <a href="<page docs/debian>#ubuntu">official Tor
APT repository</a> and run the specified commands to install <code>tor</code>
and <code>deb.torproject.org-keyring</code>. You need <em>Tor 0.2.4.x</em> because
it knows how to automatically report your obfsproxy address to <a
href="https://bridges.torproject.org/?transport=obfs3">BridgeDB</a>.
