Description Edgar Anderson 2023-06-18 21:57:06 UTC

I have boinc-client installed from the OBS network repository [ https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network/ ]. The package is "boinc-client-7.22.2-lp154.118.1.x86_64".

The program fails to start:

Using snapper, I rolled back boinc-client and boinccmd to version 7.20.5, the last version that runs successfully for me.

Could never reproduce it. Still an issue?

Comment 2 Edgar Anderson 2024-07-13 05:41:29 UTC

I've since upgraded to 15.6, which comes with boinc-client 7.24.1. That version does not segfault.

Comment 3 Jan Engelhardt 2024-07-13 08:06:13 UTC

Good to hear.
