Tor fails to launch after update

I got this issue yesterday for both Debian and Ubuntu. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Tor and torbrowser-launcher, but no luck. Here's the Terminal outputs:

The OS where I reinstalled Tor:

$ tor Jan 24 18:03:00.709 [notice] Tor 0.2.9.11 (git-aa8950022562be76) running on Linux with Libevent 2.0.21-stable, OpenSSL 1.0.2g and Zlib 1.2.8.
