That seems sad. It should get into unstable or testing - it is
currently being used by a number of people by just custom compiling
it. For many years, Tor was an experiment with a big warning - part of
what moved it was easy to install packages and lots of use.

Ricochet is also an experiment and lots of Tails is in a similar state, no?

It seems like it would be good to include it by default.
