Everything works OK before
tor-browser-gnu-linux-x86_64-2.2.33-3-dev-en-US.tar.gz
in Debian stable
Now I can't use Tor-browser directly that way described above:

start-tor-browser script from TBB itself works correct
but using tor tunneling from system tor-daemon with Linux
transparent firewalling torifycation double increased tor overhead.
Using Tor with users permissions instead of debian-tor daemon
is not a best way for secure integration with a system too.
Is it version developed especially for enforcing use TBB as is?
