Had the same problem, ended up using a wrapper:

package internal

import (
	"context"

	"github.com/cretz/bine/process"
	libtor "github.com/ipsn/go-libtor"
)

var creator = libtor.Creator

type LibTorWrapper struct{}

func (LibTorWrapper) New(ctx context.Context, args ...string) (process.Process, error) {
	return creator.New(ctx, args...)
}
// ...
ProcessCreator: internal.LibTorWrapper{}

Ah, this seems to originate from the vendor folder. If you're project is using go modules, it should be already fine. Otherwise I guess the workaround above is needed.
