 that we extract from your tarball**s**, as-is. So I don't see what can
 possibly go wrong (famous last words) by enabling signature verification
 for them. Still, I'd be more comfortable if this change was applied in a
 Tor Browser 9.0 alpha/beta/RC, before 9.0 final, so we have a chance to
 test it while it's still time to fix stuff :)

 for this bug into it.

 I confirm that with Tor Browser 9.0a8 in Tails, the langpacks still work
 :)
