> Thanks, do you have some easy STR for me to check what happens without
the patch and make sure your patch actually fixes this bug?
It is a little tricky to reproduce because the bug is timing-dependent, so
you may need to try several times. And note that Kathy and I only
reproduced it on OSX (but I think catalyst saw it on Linux). That said,
here are some STR:
1. Start with a clean Tor Browser that uses the new Tor Launcher UI, e.g.,
7.5a8.
2. Set you system clock forward; Kathy and I used 24 or 25 hours but
catalyst saw the bug with a +3.5 hour offset.
3. Start Tor Browser and click Connect.
If the bug occurs, you will see a stalled progress bar after a while with
a bold progress message such as "Loading relay information." The bold font
is an indication that an error message was displayed and then replaced
with a regular bootstrap progress message.
