Comment (by quite):

 The workarounds are documented in the "canonical":

 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/PluggableTransports/obfs4proxy

 And as well at:

   https://community.torproject.org/relay/setup/bridge/debian-ubuntu/

 But since this issue (and #7875) still lingers years later, I'm thinking
 that what we're after is a solution that allows setting up a bridge by
 simply installing the tor package, the obfs4proxy binary (by some means),
 and editing torrc? And not a documented, post-package-installation
 workaround/tweak.
