Package: apt-transport-tor
Version: 0.3
Severity: normal

After installing apt-transport-tor and running
    apt update

I noticed a few DNS SRV queries for '_socks._tcp.localhost' are sent tomy nameserver.

Since the queries are invalid and the tor proxy address is configured inapt.conf, these queries shouldn't be generated.
