add post install hooks

[adrelanos]

As a distribution (and possibly for others) it's useful to run some post install scripts after installing Tor Browser. Examples:

• We create a ~/Downloads folder.
• We disable Tor Browser's internal updater, because it's not as secure yet.
• Possibly in future more such as changing browser homepage.

Could you add a feature please to execute a /etc/tl/post-install (or so) script please?

Good idea.

I'm pushing this to 0.2.6 because I want to flesh out the feature a bit more first.

Do you think it makes sense to add a setting that lets the user specify a path to execute after successfully installing, but before launching? This way you could bundle an appropriate settings.json with your distro. Are there any problems with this approach?

Not that I know. Was just looking at this from the Whonix distribution packager viewpoint back then when I wrote this ticket.

An improvement would be /etc/tl-post.d where one drop scripts. I.e. all executable files matching /etc/tl-post.d/*.sh would be executed.
