 Does this mean that the tor daemon is ignoring the GeoIPFile directive?
 That is surprising, but if tor is ignoring that config directive then this
 ticket should be switched to component=Tor instead of component=Tor
 Browser.

 If Tor Browser/Tor Launcher is specifying the wrong path for GeoIPFile
 then this ticket should stay as a Tor Browser one.
