false positive message: browser tab bar shows "Not connected" even though connected in a system Tor etc. context
Summary
Browser tab bar shows false-positive Not connected in a transparent proxy / system Tor / Tor on other computer in LAN setups context.
It is a false positive because connectivity is functional. Could be related to #42510 (closed).
Issue first noticed in 13.5a6.
Does not happen with 13.0.13.
Steps to reproduce:
Set environment variables.
export TOR_SKIP_LAUNCH=1
export TOR_USE_LEGACY_LAUNCHER=1
export TOR_SOCKS_IPC_PATH="/run/anon-ws-disable-stacked-tor/127.0.0.1_9150.sock"
export TOR_CONTROL_IPC_PATH="/run/anon-ws-disable-stacked-tor/127.0.0.1_9151.sock"
export TOR_SKIP_CONTROLPORTTEST=1
export TOR_NO_DISPLAY_NETWORK_SETTINGS=1- Start Tor Browser from the command line.
What is the current bug behavior?
Tor Browser tab bar shows on the right side Not connected but this is false.
What is the expected behavior?
Tor Browser should not show that message.
