Public bug reported: Currently, Zesty ships with Tor 0.2.9.10 but the latest point release is 0.2.9.11 [1]. Xenial is shipping 0.2.7.6 while the 0.2.7 branch reached its end of life on August 1st 2017 [2].
Since Tor is a security sensitive package, tracking upstream point releases for that LTS branch would keep Ubuntu users safe. 1: https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor.git/plain/ReleaseNotes?id=tor-0.2.9.11 2: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/teams/NetworkTeam/CoreTorReleases ** Affects: tor (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1710753 Title: Please upgrade Xenial/Zesty to use the latest LTS point release of Tor (0.2.9) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tor/+bug/1710753/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
