Bug Description
Currently, the tinyproxy package is ./configured to support only a minimal feature set:
tinyproxy-1.6.3$ grep configure debian/rules
./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-xtinyproxy --bindir=/usr/sbin --mandir=
** At least --enable-filter and --enable-

I recompiled it with
$ sed 's/--enable-
$ dpkg-buildpackage
and it works flawlessly as a transparent proxy.

I'm a Debian developer about to make an update to tinyproxy in Debian. I just noticed this Ubuntu update used a not too convenient version number (-3, instead of -2ubuntu1 or whatever).
I wonder how Ubuntu will sync this package without forcing downgrades. How has been dealt with before?

If transparent proxy support missing, one gets a rather misleading message
The following error has occured: Unknown URL type
when trying to use tinyproxy as a transparent proxy.
