Comment:

 We made a few more improvements to Tor Launcher:
   https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor-
 launcher.git/commit/b709f9ffbbad9867fb1041824b9a1df4d43fed73

 Ideally, Tor Launcher would detect situations that will never result in a
 successful bootstrap (e.g., if the user has a non-PT bundle and only PT
 bridges are configured).  Unfortunately the tor process logs a warning but
 does not produce a bootstrap error so Tor Launcher just displays a frozen
 progress bar.  Should we file a bug against tor?
