Hi,

when I put the attached series file into debian/patches the already existing 
three patches are applied. The resulting package is useable and can download 
and open the torbrowser.

me at machine$: ~/src/torbrowser-launcher-0.1.9 $ head -n1 debian/patches/*patch

The second patch that applies 5f833d7 is not usable without modifikation or 
applying the first patch. 
But it should be possible to have a patch to only apply 5f833d7.

I do not know wether the changes of all these three patches are ok or not for 
applying on a package already in jessie, but they were introduced with the 
commit that has the version number of the package in jessie today, obviuosly 
they never got applied:

--8<--8<--
torbrowser-launcher (0.1.9-1+deb8u1) jessie; urgency=high

  * Apply 3d9f4ed and 5f833d7 from 0.2.0 upstream release to deal with changed
    pathes in the 4.5 torbrowser release. (Closes: #784041)
  * 3d9f4ed also removes the accept links feature (as it has stopped worked
    with 4.5.)
  * Apply f219f35 from 0.2.0 to stop acting as default browser, because a
    default browser should be captable of accepting links.
-->8-->8--

So imho the easiest way to fix this problem would be to add the series file 
and rebuild if it is ok for an actual jessie package to have such changes.

The package would be available in jessie-updates until the next point release 
if I undestand this right?

Toby
