Comment (by yawning):

 Replying to [comment:7 gk]:
 > Well, I think that is a reasonable request in general. I don't think,
 though, that jumping back to including the `versions` file to fix just the
 torbrowser-launcher case is the right thing to do here.

 Indeed.  I went and opened #25020 with a replacement proposal.

 As a side note, the `torbrowser-launcher` "fix" that's proposed looks
 incredibly brittle to me (a more robust kludge would be something like
 extracting `browser.startup.homepage_override.torbrowser.version` from
 `prefs.js`), but the new ticket when implemented will remove the need for
 kludges in the long run.
