 As tor versions up rapidly stable repos sometimes host legacy versions of
 tor.

 Some people like me tend to just compile it ourselves and replace the
 binary, to enjoy the benefit of packaging and to follow up on new
 versions.

 It would be nice to add build informations, such as gcc version, library
 versions and configure arguments. That way people like me can replicate
 exactly what the package managers are doing.
