Comment (by sysrqb):

 This looks good to me

 The [https://github.com/thaliproject/Tor_Onion_Proxy_Library/issues/120
 Pull Request] says:
 {{{
 On Android 4.4, ${user.home} is "/", which the app does not have
 permission to access. This causes tor to fail to start. Other versions of
 Android are not affected.
 }}}
