PACKAGE NAME ------------ neko_boinc_client SOURCE/VERSION -------------- boinc_client-5.4.9 ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES --------------------- using nekoware gcc 3.4.6 CFLAGS=-O3 CXXFLAGS=-O3 CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/nekoware/include LDFLAGS=-L/usr/nekoware/lib CONFIGURE FLAGS --------------- ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/nekoware_compiles/boinc-549 --disable-server --with-ssl=/usr/nekoware --with-libcurl=/usr/nekoware KNOWN DEPENDANCIES ------------------ libcurl, libidn, libiconv, libz, libcrypto, libssl - all from nekoware USE --- Main binary is boinc_client - use --help option to get the usage syntax. To monitor the state of the client, use boinc_cmd binary - use --help option to get the usage syntax. ERRORS/MISCELLANEOUS -------------------- Compiled with gcc as has too many gcc-isms to port to MipsPro. Not massively optimised as the client itself doesn't do any work except fetching the work for the binaries it controls (e.g. setiathome_enhanced). If you wish to compile it yourself you will need to patch one of the source files with the provided patch (to enable correct calculation of number of CPUs, free memory). Make sure to copy the patch into the boinc client directory before applying it as follows: patch -p0 < neko_boinc-5.4.9_irix.patch Installation directory is slightly different - standalone within /usr/nekoware. The reason for this is that the boinc_client binary creates a whole directory structure underneath it when it attaches to a project, as well as generating additional files. The location of these is not configurable. Installation within the /usr/nekoware/bin directory would make things messy. |
