In general, no configuration-breaking software is installed on productive systems. With debian, once the release is frozen and stable, there are _no_ upgrades. This is the main reason for the stable archive! There are only updates, security updates in the 'stable main' archive Some new features are offered in backports if they don't break configs of stable packages. There are very few upgrades (virus scanners and timezone data) in stable-updates, formerly volatile. Therefore, Tor upgrades with new features must be installed from the Tor project repro. EPEL (CentOS/RHEL) may have a similar policy and you must grab packages from the Tor project if you want to upgrade. -- ╰_╯ Ciao Marco! Debian GNU/Linux It's free software and it gives you freedom!
