-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2012-9859 2012-06-25 23:33:30 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : boinc-client Product : Fedora 17 Version : 7.0.29 Release : 1.r25790svn.fc17 URL : http://boinc.berkeley.edu/ Summary : The BOINC client core Description : The Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing (BOINC) is an open- source software platform which supports distributed computing, primarily in the form of "volunteer" computing and "desktop Grid" computing. It is well suited for problems which are often described as "trivially parallel". BOINC is the underlying software used by projects such as SETI@home, Einstein@Home, ClimatePrediciton.net, the World Community Grid, and many other distributed computing projects. This package installs the BOINC client software, which will allow your computer to participate in one or more BOINC projects, using your spare computer time to search for cures for diseases, model protein folding, study global warming, discover sources of gravitational waves, and many other types of scientific and mathematical research. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: - Update to 7.0a branch - Fix running the service under systemd. - Fix automatic startup of the service - Fix leaving lockfile after service stop - Patch to show notification upon failure to client in manager - Resolves BZ#731669, BZ#814060, BZ#825032, BZ#827912, BZ#829564, BZ#834900, BZ#838507. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Mon Jul 9 2012 Miloš Jakubíček <[email protected]> - 7.0.29-1.r25790svn - Update to 7.0a branch - Added boinc-client-X11.patch to workaround a --no-as-needed build issue - Added boinc-manager-client-notification.patch to be tell users about how to setup Boinc on Fedora - Added backported boinc-client-menu.patch to fix menu display - Don't use Boinc rotating log files (never deletes them) - Fix automatic startup of the service - Fix leaving lockfile after service stop - Resolve BZ#731669, BZ#814060, BZ#825032, BZ#827912, BZ#829564, BZ#834900, BZ#838507. * Fri Jun 22 2012 Miloš Jakubíček <[email protected]> - 6.12.43-2.r25218svn - Fixed naming systemd service file - Fixed logging to /var/log/boinc.log and /var/log/boincerr.log -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #814060 - No such file or directory when starting service boinc-client https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=814060 [ 2 ] Bug #825032 - Failed to issue method call: Unit boinc-client.service failed to load: No such file or directory. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=825032 [ 3 ] Bug #827912 - boinc client does not start https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=827912 [ 4 ] Bug #829564 - starting boinc-client on F17 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=829564 [ 5 ] Bug #731669 - [boinc-manager] menu bar almost not displayed https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=731669 [ 6 ] Bug #834900 - Selinux prevents boinc client from reading log file https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=834900 [ 7 ] Bug #838507 - RFE: new version available https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=838507 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
