Hi,

Firstly, on 9th of this month, tor 0.3.2.9 was released, I was wondering when it is available the official repos via apt-get? I'd rather not compile from source because its on a its on a pi and will takes ages and I will be effectively loosing auto-updates for tor.

I have been testing the 0.3.2.8-alpha in a VM for a while and I am looking forward to using the new stable release.

Confusingly, https://www.torproject.org/download/download.html reports that the latest stable version number (0.3.2.9) is greater than the alpha (0.3.2.8-rc) am I missing something?

This is a popular question right now:

It is summer / winter holidays for many people.

Many of our packagers are volunteers.

And many distributions have not updated yet:

Please wait another week, and check other threads, before asking again.

Secondly, I think the "Raspbian is not Debian" warning should be removed from https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en which while technically true gives users a false impression as tor will indeed work fine on a Raspberry Pi 2 / 3 (armhf not armel like Pi 1).
