Hi!

thanks for pointing this out. Indeed, these (old) patches are actually
not even needed. I've decided to delete them from the packaging. This
will result in
* new users will use the default TorBirdy configuration, which uses port
9150, or TorBrowser's tor.
* every user is able to modify TorBirdy's preferences to use system
tor's port, 9050
* users who have already modified these preferences in the past are not
affected by this change, as settings persist, even after an upgrade from
0.2.1 to 0.2.2. I've tested this on my own, Jessie system.

This should in no way interfere with the way Tails handles this.
What do you think?

Cheers!
u.
