Comment (by cypherpunks):
I forgot to comment again yesterday that the moving extensions away and
back *did* work again.
Replying to [comment:4 arma]:
> Wouldn't that upgrade path have been 4.5-alpha2 -> 4.5a3? And 4.0.2 ->
4.0.3? I don't think you can mix the stable and alpha branches like you're
doing, with the internal updater.
I'm using torbrowser-launcher, which currently insists on upgrading 4.0.3
to 4.5a3 (I assume due to that version being in the RecommendedTBBVersions
file and not having "alpha" in its version string). But when I filed this
ticket in July I was upgrading manually (as described in the ticket) and
had the exact same symptoms.
(I still haven't used the new internal updater on Linux successfully yet;
I forget what happened execpt that it failed when I tried it last time so
I'm still using TBL.)
I hope this issue won't be ignored if it happens to not affect the
internal updater! Even if the internal updater works, I think/hope
micahflee will continue to maintain TBL as long as there isn't an official
TBB debian package.
