I have just noticed that the tor-browser I downloaded from its
official site does not start any more. :(
However, it started just a few weeks ago, before a few previous updates.
Downloading its latest version has not changed anything in this respect.

just a guess... but you probably need to enable wayland for x11-libs/gtk+:3

Seems to affect Gentoo and Slackware the most. I cannot run the latest
11.0.1. I am not using Wayland. I've rolled back to version 10.5.6 in
the meantime.

However your solution works for me. I figured that getting wayland
support would have required a lot more rebuilding, or I would have tried
it days ago. I switched on the wayland flag for gtk+ (portage required
it for mesa as well) and I was good to go.
Thanks much.
