 While testing the upcoming 6.5a3 builds I got greeted with
 {{{
 Sep 20 16:28:18.534 [warn] Unix socket path '"/home/thomas/Arbeit/Tor/tor-
 browser-bundle/gitian/tor-browser_en-
 US/Browser/TorBrowser/Data/Tor/control.socket"' is too long to fit.
 Sep 20 16:28:18.534 [warn] Failed to parse/validate config: Failed to bind
 one of the listener ports.
 }}}
 And Tor Browser failed to start. Moving both the 6.5a3 and the
 6.5a3-hardened bundle into my home dir solved the problem
