Thanks for doing some testing. What version of OSX did you use?
> I agree with gk that the .dmg folder layout is confusing. Maybe we could
deliver the TorBrowser.app inside the "Sandboxed Tor Browser" folder so
the user doesn't have to place it there themselves? (The text in the
README is a little ambiguous about where to put TorBrowser.app, so
initially I incorrectly placed it as a sibling of "Sandboxed Tor Browser"
instead of as a child, and that of course resulted in an error.)
The problem with including TorBrowser.app inside the "Sandboxed Tor
Browser" folder is that we would need to include a complete copy, which
would double the size of the dmg files (without an installer that runs
some code, I don't know of a way to avoid that).
We could change the "Follow these steps" portion README text to be
clearer. Here is an attempt at new text:
{{{
Follow these steps to use the sandbox profiles:
1. Copy this folder ("Sandboxed Tor Browser") to a local drive, but do not
put it in /Applications.
2. Copy the TorBrowser app into your "Sandboxed Tor Browser" folder.
3. Open Terminal.
4. Run start-tor-with-sandbox and wait for Tor bootstrapping to finish.
5. Run start-browser-with-sandbox.
}}}
Is this better?
