[Trisquel-users] Issues when trying to install tor browser
I just tried to install tor browser. I downloaded and signature-checked from https://www.torproject.org/download/download-easy.html.en When running tar -xvfJ tor-browser-linux64-7.0.4_en-US.tar.xz I was met with: tar: J: Cannot open: No such file or directory tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now Afterwards I decompressed via the file manager. Following this guide: https://cialu.net/install-tor-browser-on-linux-and-set-up-a-launcher/ I want to set-up a launcher. But When entering sudo mv tor-browser_en-US /opt I get mv: inter-device move failed: ‘tor-browser_en-US’ to ‘/opt/tor-browser_en-US’; unable to remove target: Is a directory Any help on problem and/or solution?

For the first error, the J needs to come before the f: tar looks at whatever follows the f to find the file to extract, and in the above case that happened to be 'J'. For the second error, is there already a folder called '/opt/tor-browser_en-US'? I'm not entirely sure this is the problem, but if such a folder exists, it has to be moved out of the way before you can copy a new folder in there.

I just downloaded it today, was having trouble with the command line install instructions as well, I don't know why but a lot of command line instructions don't work for me and I'm not familiar enough to figure out why, but I extracted It in downloads was able to run TOR from there. Moved it to desktop and all set. Except I think I'm gonna move it to a Flash drive instead.Make sure to adjust your security settings in TOR when you first launch it comes configured at the lowest security setting.
