I do not know why this is, but it has been my experience with two portupgrade -aruv on two different machines that I had to deinstall boinc-client and rebuild it it I wanted to received work units from setiathome. My suspicion is that there is some information in the .xml files that boinc-client needs to provide to setiathome that is not present until boinc-setiathome-enhanced-5.12 is installed. According to my typescript file, boinc-client is evaluated at line #6426 of 7051, boinc-setiathome-enhanced is evaluated at line #6436 of 7051. However, I believe it is a bad idea to make boinc-client dependent on boinc-setiathome, since boinc-client has to consider other boinc projects. Plus it should evaluate all needed info when it is executed, not when it is installed. >How-To-Repeat: Not confirmend, but I would attempt to build boinc-client, then boinc-setiathome-enhanced and see if it will recieve packets from setiathome. Interesting test would be to attempt this with einstein, but I am not a member of that project. >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
