Bug Description
mkvtoolnix gui checks for new versions online.
The check can be disabled in configuration, but it's enabled by default (pointless if installed via a package manager)
It should default to OFF.
Under some conditions it causes even crashes (filling as separate bug #1014236)

As Ubuntu's officially packaged version often lacks five or six releases behind and as the original author ( = me) provides his own repository with current Ubuntu packages I don't really see this as pointless. Also the update checker lists the relevant portions of the MKVToolNix change log, something you don't get with Ubuntu's package manager.
