Control menu checkbox shows state one step in the past

[Stefan Helmert]

Clicking in boinc-manager "Control" ("Steuerung") menu on one menu item, it changes the state correctly, but not the current state is shown. It is shown one step in the past. That means it shows, what was selected, before the last selection.

IIRC this has fixed between 7.6.31 and 7.6.33

I upgraded to the version 7.6.33 in your link. This does not fix it.

[Gianfranco Costamagna (costamagnagianfranco)]

I can't really reproduce, strange

[Gianfranco Costamagna (costamagnagianfranco)]

Please try this ppa and boinc 7.8.1, and let me know if the problem still occurs

7.8.1 does not change anything.

[Gianfranco Costamagna (costamagnagianfranco)]

Did you report it upstream?
