 I tried it out with `tails-amd64-feature_15803-tor-browser-8.0a10+force-
 all-tests-3.9-20180819T1720Z-575956dc62+testing@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx`
 (apparently deleted from https://nightly.tails.boum.org/ in the meantime):

 Torbutton 2.0.2 from Tor Browser 8.0a10 does not have the `initialized =
 true`
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/torbutton.git/commit/?id=aa379dcc5c06ee542a1c63adc769678700e32eaa
 fix] yet, so `sendMessage()` happens to be called twice on init. The first
 time it fails with the error message, the second time it succeeds for me.
 Same as you, apparently. Maybe my old test notebook causes delays in just
 the right order before the second `sendMessage()`, giving NoScript time to
 become ready? Whereas with vanilla 8.0a10 in my Fedora 28 test VM, both
 `sendMessage()` calls fail and I see the error twice.

 With the Torbutton fix (included in Torbutton >= 2.0.4), the bug does seem
 to consistently affect Tails in my testing.
