Hi,

(this is maybe more to pkg-privacy-maintainers@ than to -release@, maybe not.)

so far I've only tested binary builds of these changes and when doing a source 
build now I realized that cherry-picking these patches of course changed the 
source and thus debuild -S failed like this:

dpkg-source: error: aborting due to unexpected upstream changes, see 
/tmp/torbrowser-launcher_0.1.9-1+deb8u2.diff.1bVtM1
dpkg-source: info: you can integrate the local changes with dpkg-source --
commit

I then ran "dpkg-source --commit" which indeed created one big patch with all 
the changes from the cherry-picked commits and the actual source code 
modifications reverted.

Obviously I could upload this as it is but currently I'm not yet convinced 
this is the best course of action… as this will make further maintenance a bit 
more annoyed and this is exactly why I sympathised with the idea of uploading 
0.2.2 to stable in the first place.

Oh well, I will go afk to think about this. Comments or other ideas welcome.


cheers,
	Holger
