Description

History:

• We allowed user debian-tor on Whonix-Gateway to use system default DNS to make meek-lite work.
  ** Reference: censorship circumvention / Tor pluggable transports - #4 by iry
• We are no longer shipping https://github.com/Whonix/anon-gw-dns-conf/blob/master/etc/resolv.conf.anondist.

Maybe libresolv-wrapper would be a better solution.

• Debian -- Error
• cwrap - resolv_wrapper

Check these alternatives out:

https://packages.debian.org/stretch/udns-utils
https://packages.debian.org/stretch/python-adns

Unfortunately, not possible.

These would require application support.
