In general, the online update mechanism spawns threads that it doesn't
properly join again before exit, which is a notorious problem with
tests (that often run quickly enough to terminate soffice.bin while
the online update check is still in progress),

Is it not possible to pass in a parameter disabling the
online-update-check? That should make the tests happier.

I have the faint memory that we indeed somehow disabled it at least
for some of the tests in the past, but can't find any relevant code.
(There's apparently no such command-line parameter for soffice, and
the code at extensions/source/update/check/updatecheckjob.cxx also
does not check any environment variable or similar.)


Sounds like something I could log as a MediumHack?

Preferred hack would of course be to fix that online update code, but it looks like an opaque disaster at least to me...
