Comment:

 CentOS 6.8 is tricky as it does not ship a GTK3 library by default (which
 is required by Firefox 60). The CentOS Firefox maintainers told me that
 they will ship a GTK3 library specifically for the Firefox 60 ESR they
 ship and we could use that as well then. You should get that required
 library once you install Firefox 60 ESR on your system. Does that solve
 your issue?

 What output do you get if you run `./start-tor-browser.desktop --debug` in
 your terminal (inside `tor-browser_en-US`)?
