Does this package build the Tor browser from source? Or is it just a
launcher, like the Debian package?

My understanding is that the Tor people discourage anyone else from
distributing builds of the Tor browser.

If it builds from source, we should probably call it something besides
"Tor browser", since it will be different from the official Tor browser
due to the unbundling and other changes.

Also, if it builds from source, it will be easy to identify users of
this package as being Guix users and since the Guix userbase is
relatively small, it will be much easier than usual to positively
identify the person using the package.
