Comment (by adrelanos):

 The very root issue still is the absence of a Debian package for Tor
 Browser. (#3994 and/or #5236)

 If there was a stable drop-in ({{{.d}}}) folder as there is {{{/etc
 /firefox-esr/}}} for Firefox in Debian that only changes between major
 release upgrades ({{{jessie}}} -> {{{stretch}}}), that would be a perfect
 solution.

 Experience tells, that the folder structure of TBB changes over time.
 Therefore a file based solution easily breaks after an upgrade or
 installation of a newer version of TBB.

 Therefore, everything that can be configured by environment variable works
 very easy, stable and long term for Whonix.
