The first released tor version with
%include
feature is
0.3.1.1-alpha
. When adding a %include line to/etc/tor/torrc
but
the Tor version is below it, Tor will stop working, which is a severe
issue.I have no idea when
0.3.1.1-alpha
will become stable (and did not
find any document on Tor life cycles) . Therefore, if
0.3.1.1-alpha
still not become stable when Whonix14 is released,
there are two ways to preventanon-connection-wizard
to add
%include
line to/etc/tor/torrc
:
- Just do not include
anon-connection-wizard
into Whonix14 until
the feature is included into stable Tor; 2. merge this commit:What do you think, @Patrick ?
It’s not a single line change.
It needs all of this probably.

When we get close to Whonix 14 release, I think it would be better to
forward port what Tor 0.3.1.1-alpha does.Since there is a lot work left until Whonix 14, I guess chances are we
are in time for 0.3.1.1 getting stable (or we’ll add the beta or even
alpha if that isn’t too crazy)
Hi @Patrick !
Thank you for your answer!
I have found the core Tor
release
wiki page, which indicates that Tor 0.3.1 stable will be released Sep
5th. I guess there is no need to worry about this problem anymore.
Lesson I learned: If there is no document of a project available on a
search engine, always check documents on the official site carefully
before assuming it is not documented.
