 Doing a
 {{{
 gpg --verify Downloads/tor-browser-linux64-6.5_en-US.tar.xz{.asc*,}
 }}}
 seems to break under some circumstances for Linux users yet we recommend
 something like that on our website where we explain how to verify the
 signatures of freshly downloaded Tor Browser bundles.

 It seems to me doing something like
 {{{
 gpg --verify tor-browser-linux64-6.5_en-US.tar.xz.asc tor-browser-
 linux64-6.5_en-US.tar.xz
 }}}
 is a saner approach.
