Comment (by mcs):

 Replying to [comment:2 gk]:
 > I was under the impression the browser update itself is not touching
 HTTPS-Everywhere.

 Our incremental updates replace HTTPS-E (and NoScript) if the extension
 version number changes between Tor Browser releases. But if it does not
 change, the incremental MAR should not contain any HTTPS-E files and
 therefore the version the user had at the time of the update should not be
 touched.

 I do not think there was a change to HTTPS-E between 6.0.1 and 6.0.2. I
 double checked that the win32 6.0.1 -> 6.0.2 incremental MAR files do not
 contain any references to HTTPS-E files (the only things under
 TorBrowser/Data/Browser/profile.default/extensions that are touched are
 the torbutton .xpi and the language pack).

 I also failed to reproduce this problem with a TB 5.5.5 -> 6.0.2 update.
 It seems there must be something different about the user's setup that
 makes this not reproducible for us.
