 I've added some steps to verify the sha256 hash of the downloaded
 packages.

 There's some more work to be done, mainly allowing for an easier way to
 update the expected hashes (for now we should do this manually when we
 update the package version) and for verifying gpg signatures, but this
 should be an improvement over what we have now.

 The patch is in the 'check_download_hashes' branch of
 git://github.com/flavioamieiro/torbrowser.git
 (https://github.com/flavioamieiro/torbrowser/tree/check_download_hashes).
