Comment:

 One problem, as I see it, is that we don't ship the geoip6 file at all in
 the TBB 3.x bundles. But even if we shipped it the error would be the same
 as we either need to add a proper entry in torrc (or let the user adding
 that entry herself) or tell tor-launcher to pass the path to the v6 file
 as well. I am not sure yet why that Gitian VM path is showing up in the
 absence of a correct path to geoip6, though.
