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: - Fix security bug BZ#479664 - Update to 6.4.5 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Thu Jan 15 2009 Milos Jakubicek <xjakub@fi.muni.cz> - 6.4.5-2.20081217svn - Fix security bug BZ#479664 * Wed Dec 17 2008 Milos Jakubicek <xjakub@fi.muni.cz> - 6.4.5-1.20081217svn - Update to 6.4.5 - Updated boinc-gccflags.patch and boinc-locales.patch - Not trimming doc/ subdirectory - Bash completion now provided by the source tarball, not packaged as separate sources anymore. - Supplied example /etc/sysconfig configuration file - Added BR: docbook2X for autogenerating manpages, not packaged as separate sources anymore. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #479664 - boinc-client: Does not check the RSA_public_decrypt() return value. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=479664 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
