Well, I think Debian will have to remove the graphics API (or at least this file) from their BOINC source package. Which isn't *that* much of a problem, since for quite a while they have been repackaging the source to remove CUDA stuff anyway. But back in November 2009, the gNewSense distribution removed BOINC completely from their repositories due to texfont.C: http://bugs.gnewsense.org/Bugs/00362 I should let them know that this single file or even the whole api/ directory can be safely removed without technical consequences to the client... > and hope that at some point > Mark Kilgard releases his code under BSD or similar.
