Summary0004449: torbrowser-launcher --settings fails to install en_US version on non-english system
Description

When checking "force english version" and clicking on "install" button the procedure downloads en_US version but hangs at install time. When clicking on "save and exit" and launching torbrowser-launcher, it installs en_US version correctly.

A little offtopic: current torbrowser-launcher sticks to torbrowser version 7.0, when there's a newer version (7.5)

Steps To Reproduce

On a non-english system (force LANG=es_AR in shell, for example) launch:

$ torbrowser-launcher --settings

Choose "force downloading English version" an click Install button

Using "save and exit" doesn't work either. I don't know why but first time it worked. Subsequent tests didn .

Additionally, even when using default system locale (ES) with latest TorBrowser (v7.5) the launcher no longer works. Seems this was the initial problem. The folder under ~/.local/share/torbrowser was getting installed right but progress bar was not working. Then the launcher crashed leaving the install window orphan. It gives following error due to expecting certain files in the original TorBrowser distribution package:

IOError: [Errno 2] No existe el fichero o el directorio: '/home/pavel/.local/share/torbrowser/tbb/x86_64/tor-browser_es-ES/Browser/TorBrowser/Docs/sources/versions'

Due to the age of the OS (Kali Moto [v1], Kali Safi [v2], Kali Rolling 2016.x/2017.x), these legacy versions are no longer supported.
