FWIW, in the longer-term I think that the PT bundles and the normal TBB
bundles should merge as soon as we have the development resources to
improve Tor Launcher to support PT selection, configuration, and bridge
input/discovery..

I believe all of the PT configuration should be done under the
"Configure" button of Tor Launcher (or some similar UI).


I think the first steps to this are to get the same build system to
churn out both sets of bundles (probably by copying each OS's
gitian-bundle.yml to gitian-bundle-pt.yml and adding the PT packages in
that step):
