Hello,

I have manually installed the version from Stretch because I thought it might 
fix the freezing problem but it didn't help. Upon closer inspection I have also 
discovered that the freeze doesn't happen if you move the mouse from selected 
button into an empty area. It looks like the appearance of the dotted 
rectangle causes the game to freeze.

Best Regards,
Andrej
