Matching subscriptions: Ubuntu 16.04 Bugs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1581029 Title: Running BOINC without an X-server (or with PrivateTmp=true in the service file) results in a crash Status in boinc package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in boinc source package in Xenial: Fix Committed Bug description: [Impact] * crash on non-X servers or with PrivateTmp systemd option set [Test Case] * run boinc with idle detection code enabled [Regression Potential] * none, just a NPE fixed. Fixed in yakkety 7.6.32+dfsg-2~build1 When running BOINC without an X-server, or under systemd with PrivateTmp set to true, a crash occurs (after about 5 minutes). This is because the idle detection code is trying to open /tmp/.X11-unix, and the error case (the case where the directory doesn't exist or isn't accessible) isn't handled correctly. This is documented upstream at https://github.com/BOINC/boinc/issues/1530, and fixed with the commit https://github.com/BOINC/boinc/commit/8416d8a1a423535fbc5d4e7416d6eac8ac5c050b, but hasn't made into a release yet. This is under Ubuntu 16.04 (xenial), with version 7.6.31+dfsg-6.
