 Replying to [comment:8 cypherpunks]:
 > Can confirm that running {{{GSETTINGS_BACKEND=memory ./start-tor-
 browser}}} fixes it. Using firejail with {{{--nodbus}}} option also works.
 >
 > I propose that the {{{GSETTINGS_BACKEND}}} fix above be added to the
 start-tor-browser script which also sets and exports HOME.

 Does not sound unreasonable to me at first glance. Care to write a small
 patch for that so we can review it?
