Comment (by mcs):
Okay, I learned a little bit more. After I did this the browser comes much
closer to starting up:
{{{
cd TorBrowser.app
chmod +x Contents/MacOS/firefox
chmod +x Contents/MacOS/Tor/tor.real
chmod +x Contents/Resources/TorBrowser/Tor/tor
}}}
Unfortunately, I then encountered #18753 for the control port socket
because my browser is installed in /Applications, which means the control
socket path contains a space:
{{{
~/Library/Application Support/TorBrowser-Data/Tor/control.socket
}}}
(in hindsight, I now realize that #18753 is going to affect a lot of
people).
Finally, after I created a `/tmp/sockets` directory with mode 700 and
added an appropriate `extensions.torlauncher.control_socket_path`
preference, my 6.5a3 browser starts and works.
We definitely need to find a way to test updates before we release :(
