Hi Sean,
the problem (if it is a problem) is within
http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org/dists/jessie/main/binary-armhf/Packages.gz
that lists tor-geoipdb 0.2.9.9-1~d80.jessie+1 for armhf architecture 
(since it is a
multi-arch package) while it still lists tor 0.2.9.8-2~d80.jessie+1
So I don't think it is a Raspbian issue. Maybe it is not an issue at 
all, they've
simply updated tor-geoipdb but have not completed testing tor for this 
architecture
(it is available for amd64 arch for example), but I was used to get both 
packages
almost immediately after the release in tor announce ML. Is it possible 
that they've
forgot to build latest tor package for armhf architecture or is it 
simply a matter
of time?

Best regards,
