 I installed tor-browser-linux64-3.5_en-US.tar.xz by unpacking the archive.
 Unpacked gets a directory

 ./tor-browser_en-US/...

 Additionally the user may choose to unpack the directory tree in a
 previously created own directory.

 But in start-tor-browser there is

 LD_LIBRARY_PATH="${HOME}/Tor/"

 so this path will not be found because the libs are in

 ${HOME}/[user-created-directory]/tor-browser_en-US/Tor

 Nevertheless the software seems to work here. But we want to assure that
 specific libs get used, so this should be corrected.
