Comment (by boklm):

 Clicking on "Check for Tor Browser Update" should open a new window saying
 "Looking for new versions of Tor Browser" and then say if a new version is
 available.

 To see if it's doing something in the background, you can set
 `app.update.log` to true, and then look at the browser console (which can
 be opened with Ctrl+Shift+J).

 Then it should show some lines such as:
 {{{
 AUS:SVC getCanApplyUpdates - testing write access /tmp/tb/tor-browser_en-
 US/Browser/TorBrowser/UpdateInfo/update.test
 AUS:SVC getCanApplyUpdates - able to apply updates
 AUS:SVC getCanStageUpdates - staging updates is disabled by preference
 app.update.staging.enabled
 AUS:SVC Checker:getUpdateURL - update URL:
 https://aus1.torproject.org/torbrowser/update_3/release/Linux_x86_64-gcc3/8.0.1
 /en-US
 AUS:SVC Checker: checkForUpdates, force: false
 AUS:SVC Checker:getUpdateURL - update URL:

 AUS:SVC Checker:checkForUpdates - sending request to:

 }}}
