If you are not using the tor browser that is provided in the Ubuntu repositories, but a version that you have downloaded from a foreign source, then you have to ask at that foreign source in case of problems.

If you want to install the version from torproject.org, then you probably better use the deb file that they offer, see https://support.torproject.org/apt/
