New description:

 Some people can't fetch the full packages over gmail, because they're too
 big, because their gmail interactions are throttled, or because their
 Internet connection sucks too much to fetch 30MB.

 We should deliver checksums with the download links with instructions how
 to compare them (#3893). Then they can get their Tor from wherever, and
 verify it.
