Mirall freezes when started automatically by MATE before wifi connection initialized

[asoltesz]

I am using the Mirall client on an x64 installation of Linux Mint / MATE.

The client is configured to be started automatically by MATE.

It seems that Mirall cannot wait for NetworkManager to initialize the wifi connection but tries to connect the owncloud server immediately and when it fails (since there is no network yet) it reports the error in a dialog and then freezes when I close the dialog window.

I say "it freezes", because it doesn't display its icon on the taskbar and doesn't seem to be doing anything cannot be started properly after NetworkManager has connected to the wifi network.

If I kill the failed "owncloud" process (Mirall) with killall, then it becomes possible to properly start Mirall.

Mirall should be able to re-try connecting to the owncloud server repeatedly and it shouldn't freeze.

Mirall client version: 1.1.4

Seems to me to be a duplicate of #16 ?

Yes, #16 is a bit more generic but definitely covers this issue.
