Yes, this is an old RC version. But what to do now? devel/tor-devel is supposed to be at the latest devel version. It was supposed to be updated to this version a while ago but it wasn't updated then.
I think the Tor ports are fine now as they are. What do you suggest should be done?
(In reply to Yuri Victorovich from comment #2) https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/core/team/-/wikis/NetworkTeam/CoreTorReleases shows 0.4.9 for "upcoming" which I'd read be latest and therefore "devel" in FreeBSD terms.
(In reply to p5B2EA84B3 from comment #3) But we can't update the port to 0.4.9 because tarballs aren't released yet.
(In reply to Yuri Victorovich from comment #4) Maybe upstream stopped doing so. So I'd suggest contact upstream. A devel-port lagging behind the release version is no more a devel and is for no use. As tor is a security related port I suggest remove the devel-version from the ports as this for sure not that what people expect when choosing this.

(In reply to p5B2EA84B3 from comment #5) I added the IGNORE line. tor-devel package wouldn't be available to users.
