   I used the auto-updater to update from Tor Browser 4.0.4 to 4.0.5 with
 Linux 32bit on Debian Wheezy. After auto-updating I click the 'restart'
 button. Tor restarts and then the configuration window comes up asking me
 if I want to connect directly to Tor or use a bridge.
   4.0.4 was configured to use the meek-google bridge. I don't click on any
 configure buttons and Tor 4.0.5 gets to 100% connection status and
 connects to meek-google bridge automatically, but Tor web browser doesn't
 launch and the configure window just sits there blocking Tor web browser
 from launching.
   So I close the configure window, which disconnects Tor. Then relaunch
 Tor, but this time the configure window doesn't come up and the Tor web
 browser launches when the connection status gets to 100%. A window pops up
 saying "Tor has been successfully updated."
