[tor-qa] Tor Browser 5.0a2 is ready for testing

[Georg Koppen]

Hi,

Tor Browser 5.0a2-build1 is up for testing at:

https://people.torproject.org/~gk/builds/5.0a2-build1/

This release provides a fix for the Logjam attack (https://weakdh.org/)
and updates a number of Tor Browser components: Tor to version
0.2.7.1-alpha, Torbutton to version 1.9.2.7, NoScript to version
2.6.9.26, meek to version 0.19 and HTTPS-Everywhere to version 5.0.5.
Moreover, it fixes a possible crash on Linux and avoids breaking the
Add-ons page if Torbutton is disabled.

Here is the full change log:
