Hello,

I just tagged sandboxed-tor-browser 0.0.3.  Binaries will be built when
the next Tor Browser build happens (soon).  The dependencies (both
build and runtime) have changed, end users should install `libnotify` in
the unlikely event that it is not already present, though basic
functionality should not be broken even if it is missing.

The major changes since last version are:

 * 32 bit x86 support has been deprecated.

 * Numerous installer/updater improvements including periodic
   background update checks (requires libnotify for notifications) and
   using `.onions` when fetching installer/updater metadata.

 * Fixes for various crash/functionality bugs, including problems
   relating to certain versions of bubblewrap failing to launch with
   errors related to `setsid`[0].

Full details are available in the ChangeLog, and the code is still at
https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor-browser/sandboxed-tor-browser.git/

Regards,

package, either upgrade `sandboxed-tor-browser` to the new release, or
update bubblewrap to 0.1.7 or later.
