Comment:
Looks good to me. I'll update the `config.yml` accordingly. It seems we
need (to check) two further things in this bug:
1) A proper text explaining what's going on for OS X users < 10.9. Should
we link to some Mozilla article? I looked a bit at
https://support.mozilla.org/t5/Install-and-Update/Firefox-support-has-
ended-for-Mac-OS-X-10-6-10-7-and-10-8/ta-p/32725 but that might not be
that helpful in our context.
2) Do we need to do anything to notify OS X users on < 10.9 that Tor
Browser won't work? IIRC Firefox won't extract from the DMG on an
unsupported system anymore. Having such a mechanism would probably be best
(in addition to change the text on the website saying the min supported
version is 10.9)
