If one installs the torbrowser-launcher package and then runs it it will go through the
process of downloading their build for you and setting everything up.

Description  : Tor Browser Launcher is intended to make Tor Browser easier to

             : * Verifies Tor Browser's signature for you, to ensure the version

             :   was not tampered with
             : * Adds "Tor Browser" and "Tor Browser Launcher Settings"
             :   application launcher to your desktop environment's menu
             : * Optionally plays a modem sound when you open Tor Browser
             :   (because Tor is so slow)
