Changes in version 0.4.5.11 - 2021-10-26
- This version fixes several bugs from earlier versions of Tor. A major
- change is that v2 onion service are now disabled at the client,
- service and relay meaning that any tor nodes running this version and
- onward will stops supporting v2. This is the last step into the long
- deprecation process of onion service version 2. Everyone running an
- earlier version, whether as a client, a relay, or an onion service,
- should upgrade to Tor 0.3.5.17, 0.4.5.11, or 0.4.6.8.
