Hi,
You are running a fast Tor relay, which is great: http://rougmnvswfsmd4dq.onion/rs.html#details/903044B185D293317A0CB4E7EB7FF8...
But that Tor version is obsolete, and because of old bugs, we will soon cut relays running those versions out of the network. Please consider upgrading!
The Tor 0.3.5 long-term-stable branch will be maintained until Feb 2022: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/teams/NetworkTeam/CoreTorR... and you can see the lifetimes of other Tor versions on that table too.
You can find Tor packages for your distro / OS here: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/TorRelayGuide#Platformspecific...
Let us know if we can do anything to make the process easier.
And lastly, I am cc'ing the new network health mailing list (which has public archives), to help us stay synced: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/teams/NetworkHealthTeam
Thanks! --Roger
Hi Roger,
thank you for your E-Mail. I just updated Tor to the new Tor-Repo. I am shocked Ubuntu-Repo is that bad and outdated...
Also i currently disabled IPv6 Support, as it again seams to be not working on my system. Going to look into it too and goal is to fix this by today.
Thanks and regards Kai (myeraser@gmail.com)

Looks good -- you're on 0.4.1.5 now. Great!

Yes indeed. Ubuntu lacks anybody who cares to keep Tor up to date. They pull in a lot of their debs straight from Debian, which is both good and bad, but mostly bad in this case.
Also i currently disabled IPv6 Support, as it again seams to be not working on my system. Going to look into it too and goal is to fix this by today.
Great. IPv6 support in Tor still needs some work in terms of usability, automated checking, correctly explaining to the relay operator what's going on, etc. I believe one of the network-team people has been putting together a proposal on what exactly needs to improve, and if it gets funded things should get better. :)
Thanks! --Roger
