[Bug 991179] Re: 7.0.24 "computation error" bug

[Steffen Möller]

Hello,

I can confirm this problem. I have only a hunch what may be wrong, most
likely the boinc-client now produces lines in its communication with the
scientific app that are complete - but too long. But I have to prove
that, still. The problem occurred while I was excluding potential issues
with the Einstein at Home scientific app, which had eventually been
identified and fixed in upstream code of 7.0.26. Einstein at Home is not
affected by this issue, please consider running that or Rosetta at Home
until the update is in the archive.

I had compiled the SETI App locally but that still shows that bug, so I
am a bit puzzled. Go ahead with your patch-free version. For Debian I
aim at 7.0.27 to have that addressed, which has seen a major update of
our patches in the upstream codebase. ... should come out any time soon,
now.

Cheers,

Steffen
