The installation guide https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en points to a dead end if you choose the experimental version because it hasn't been changed to 0.3.4.x.
Here's the existing ticket: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/26474 I've cc'd hiro, who merges website patches.
The torrc that comes with 0.3.4.x is from 2013.
Tor configs haven't changed much since 2013. And that's deliberate: every time we update the minimal torrc, package managers ask operators if they want to overwrite their existing torrc, and some operators say "yes". Then they wonder why their relays break. Instead, we have: https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor.git/tree/src/config/torrc.minimal.in-stagi... And: https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor.git/tree/src/config/torrc.sample.in We'll push a torrc.minimal update when there are enough changes, or when there's a critical update. (We try to make the torrc code backwards compatible, so that doesn't happen very often.) T
