Bug#1052551: gnome-calculator: Does not start from GUI (gnome), incurs error: "Calculator is not responding force quit wait"

[little_red_n]

This is caused by this issue:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-calculator/-/issues/359

Basically, if the calculator can't get the new exchange rate data (possibly because of a VPN) it won't run.

The workaround is to turn off Wi-Fi, run gnome-calculator, click on the hamburger menu in the upper right corner, click "Preferences", and then change the "Exchange rate refresh interval" to "Never".
Then the calculator will run, even with Wi-Fi turned back on. It just won't update the exchange rate.
