Bug#451310: boinc-manager: freeze when using network

[Sandro Tosi]

Package: boinc-manager
Version: 5.10.27-1
Severity: normal

Hello,
when allowing boinc-manager to connect to internet (it's on a machine not always connected to the web) the application freezes.

After some time, it start responding again but the "freeze" moments can last for even a minute or more.

SOmetimes, during those "freezes", many workunit are wasted since clients go on "Computational error" (and I need to suspend elaboration before enaling network connection).

I'm willing to help you debug this issue, but I dont know how; it you guide me, I can provide additional information.

Regards,
Sandro
