Title:
  Please upgrade Xenial/Zesty to use the latest LTS point release of Tor
  (0.2.9)

Status in tor package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in tor source package in Xenial:
  Triaged
Status in tor source package in Zesty:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Currently, Zesty ships with Tor 0.2.9.10 but the latest point release
  is 0.2.9.11 [1]. Xenial is shipping 0.2.7.6 while the 0.2.7 branch
  reached its end of life on August 1st 2017 [2].

  Since Tor is a security sensitive package, tracking upstream point
  releases for that LTS branch would keep Ubuntu users safe.
