If by "good reasons" you mean "OnionShare also is a Tor controller so it can mess/attack/whatever up the tor instance it controls, so let that not be the system-wide instance", then... > But AFAIK it's not the case for TorBirdy ... indeed, TorBirdy is not a controller (it only needs a tor SocksPort), so... > that can very well work out > of the box with the current "Depends: tor" as long as the SOCKS port > is correctly set ... TorBirdy should "Depends: tor" and remain configured to use SOCKS port 9050. I see no improvement with "Depends: torbrowser-launcher", only (significant) drawbacks. Cheers!
