Hi Ken thanks for your report. Unfortunately I tried some time ago to package again milkyway with the new code hosted here [1]
Code that I think is the official client one. Anyway I'm just stuck with some errors when I run the package with boinc, and I get only "computation errors" messages. I also asked two pull requests [2], to fix a build failure and a potential security issue. Nobody replied so far. What can I do? Fix everything without upstream support? I can, but I don't have time and man power for making the package stable without looking really deeply at the code. I'll try again with the last milkyway code, can you please try to have a better contact with upstream? thanks [1] https://github.com/Milkyway-at-home/milkywayathome_client [2] https://github.com/Milkyway-at-home/milkywayathome_client/pulls G. > Il Giovedì 2 Gennaio 2014 20:48, Ken Sharp > <imwellcushtymel...@googlemail.com> ha scritto: > > Package: boinc-app-milkyway > Version: 0.18d-4 > > The current version supplied by boinc-app-milkyway appears to run fine > on armel but: > > 1.
