See
[https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/rransom/torbrowser.git/shortlog/refs/heads/bug4984
bug4984] ( `https://git.torproject.org/user/rransom/torbrowser.git
bug4984` ) for a patch to add explanatory comments to `remove-shared-lib-
symlinks`'s debug-dump files, so there will be absolutely no excuse for
asking whether two small text files might be ârogueâ in a directory full
of multi-megabyte binaries.
Removing these files is not an option -- I found #3801 (a sign that some
TBBs did not contain what their documentation claimed they did) and #3906
(a major security problem) by looking at shared library names in the
distributed TBBs. It's bad enough that we have to rename the shared
libraries at all.
