Torbutton/Torlauncher flips out if TOR_SKIP_LAUCH is set without TOR_SOCKS_PORT

Might be kind of hard to test since I encountered this with some kind of sketchy alpha code I'm writing.

What I do:

  • Run my own control port implementation (basically a modified or-ctl-filter) on 127.0.0.1:9151. This implementation returns 250-net/listeners/socks="127.0.0.1:9150"\r\n250 OK\r\n in response to a GETINFO net/listeners/socks request.
  • Run my own SOCKS5 implementation on 127.0.0.1:9150.
  • Set TOR_SKIP_LAUNCH=1 (as the only Tor Browser env var).

What I expect to happen: Tor Browser should think that Tor is running.

What I get: The "Something went wrong" grey screen.

Setting TOR_SOCKS_PORT=9150 in the env var makes everything work, which puzzles me.
