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

              : handles everything else:
              :
             : * Downloads and installs the most recent version of Tor Browser in              :   your language and for your computer's architecture, or launches
              :   Tor Browser if it's already installed (Tor Browser will

             : * Verifies Tor Browser's signature for you, to ensure the version              :   you downloaded was cryptographically signed by Tor developers and
              :   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)

I've used it in the past.....but it is on the slow side.  And, other reasons for not sticking
with it.



Now it makes sense.  Thank you guys!
