since the last emerge -uaDvNg world, i can not run the tor browser anymore.
i become no error, i see the tor browser icon for a short time (1s) in my task bar, and thats all.

the last weeks, i do star the tor browser by this way with a tor_browser.sh file
Code:
cd /home/sarah/tor_browser
sed '/LD_PRELOAD/!s,Exec[^=]*=,&env LD_PRELOAD=/home/sarah/tor_browser/shim.so ,' start-tor-browser.desktop >tmp &&
mv tmp start-tor-browser.desktop &&
chmod +x start-tor-browser.desktop &&
./start-tor-browser.desktop

works all the time for me.

Code:
cat /var/log/emerge.log | grep complete | grep "of 41"

See Bug 944787 - dev-libs/json-c-0.18 impossible to start Tor Browser after update

A workaround for now is to remove /home/<username>/.local/share/torbrowser/tbb/x86_64/tor-browser/Browser/TorBrowser/Tor/libcrypto.so.3 so that libcrypto.so.3 from system is used instead.
