Description David Mattli 2024-05-27 01:35:44 UTC 
I'm using the Fedora Sway spin. Running "torbrowser-launcher" fails to open a tor browser. If I install the "dbus-glib" package, the tor browser opens successfully.  



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run "torbrowser-launcher" on Fedora 40 Sway spin

Actual Results:  
Nothing opens. The return value is 255.

Expected Results:  
A tor browser window should open.
