 I'm afraid I don't know where I should put the Torbutton extension in the
 tree resulting from unpacking tor-launcher at torproject.org.xpi. Any idea?

 Firefox 68? We talked about this before but I cannot remember our
 conclusion....

 There wasn't really a conclusion back then, but I did some more testing
 and reported on that thread: https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tbb-
