[Linux]ROOT6 very slow startup

I found a solution:
sft.its.cern.ch/jira/browse/ROOT-6912

Similar methods to Mac,

in
/etc/hosts
I’ve added a line
127.0.0.1 $HOSTNAME
Everything is now working in good speed.

I should also update, that the configuration file for me works, and none of the enabled packages were causing the problem.
