    The following patches were added in d/patches and added to the quilt
    series file in the stated order:
    - 0023-Update-Tor-Browser-Developers-public-key-481.patch: Fixes issue
      with signature verification of tor browser tarball, due to changed
      upstream developers key. (LP: #1856895)
    - 0030-Use-gpg-instead-of-gpg2.patch: Use /usr/bin/gpg instead of the
      /usr/bin/gpg2 symlink due to gnupg2 transitional package not being

    - 0031-Use-better-version-string-comparison.patch: Properly handle the
      version string comparison between Tor Browser versions, so that the

    - 0032-apparmor-allow-Browser-to-memory-map-libstdc.patch: Allow

torbrowser-launcher: helps download and run the Tor Browser Bundle

 Tor Browser Launcher is intended to make the Tor Browser Bundle (TBB) easier
 to maintain and use for GNU/Linux users. torbrowser-launcher handles
 downloading the most recent version of TBB for you, in your language and for
 your architecture. It also adds a "Tor Browser" application launcher to your
 operating system's menu.
 .
 When you first launch Tor Browser Launcher, it will download TBB from
 https://www.torproject.org/ and extract it to ~/.local/share/torbrowser,
 and then execute it.
 Cache and configuration files will be stored in ~/.cache/torbrowser and
 ~/.config/torbrowser.
 Each subsequent execution after installation will simply launch the most
 recent TBB, which is updated using Tor Browser's own update feature.
