Endless "checking plugin preconditions..." when no plugins are activated

[Nachtspazz@…]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

• Disable all plugins and Restart JOSM
• Or: Start JOSM without any plugins enabled.

What is the expected result?
When main window is displayed, Start-up window is closed.

What happens instead?
Start-up window remains and keeps "checking plugin preconditions..."
(Main window is also opened).

Please provide your configuration file and wait somewhat longer in case a network download hangs.

I don't think that it is a network issue.
It happens always and I can download data in parallel.

Actually, the problem is somehow caused by my configuration file.
I removed complete .josm directory tree, had it re-created by JOSM and the problem was gone.
Then I put the old configuration file back to .josm and also the problem was back.

I will upload my configuration.

Clarification: Problem does not occur always, but maybe in 80% of the cases.

By the way: The hanging window disappears when I click on it. (But that is probably normal behaviour anyway).

Do you see this popup when starting with your preferences? Also, can you please try with latest JOSM?
