Public bug reported:
[Impact]
The torbrowser-launcher package in Ubuntu 20.04 does not work *at all* on new
installations (see bug #1856895), because of a Tor Browser Developers public
key change (old key is not valid anymore) that causes Tor Browser archive
downloaded by torbrowser-launcher when being launched for a first time to fail
verification. The included debdiff contains patch with a new key from latest
package version (that is in Debian Testing and Ubuntu Groovy) and makes the
torbrowser-launcher work again.
[Test Case]
1. Use a clean, fully updated Ubuntu 20.04 system where torbrowser-launcher was
not previously installed/configured.
2. Install the "torbrowser-launcher" package.
3. Run "Tor Browser" from a desktop menu (or "torbrowser-launcher" from
terminal).
4. Wait for the Tor Browser archive to finish downloading, verifying and
unpacking.
[Regression Potential]
None. This debdiff adds just the one patch mentioned above.
** Affects: torbrowser-launcher (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Patch added: "torbrowser-launcher_0.3.2-9ubuntu1.debdiff"
