 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.
