Hi,

(fully quoting as it took us 7 months to reply; sorry about that!)

I've tried in a development image that should be pretty close to
Tails 4.0 with this APT source:

deb tor+https://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org/ buster main

… and it worked out of the box. So it looks like what you need will
come for free in 4.0 on Tuesday :)

Cheers,
