  ||<style="text-align:center"> {{http://boinc.berkeley.edu/logo/www_logo.gif}} ||<style="background-color: #FFE0E0;"> BOINC comes as an official part of Debian and with it of Ubuntu, Mint and many others. Just install the DebianPts:boinc package. Then start the `boincmgr` application to join the project of your liking. <<BR>> <<BR>> The remainder of this page helps the maintainers of these packages to better organise themselves. It may serve the curiosity of the one or other casual visitor and possibly attracts more helping hands. Ignore it at first.||

Debian supports many more platforms than any scientific group. And with Debian, you have confidence to see a direct correspondence between the source Debian distributes and the application one runs. For SETI, we have hence packaged also their scientific application as DebianPts:boinc-app-seti. Desire for more such redistributions? Contact us.||

And with Debian, you have the confidence to see a direct correspondence between the source Debian distributes and the application one runs. For SETI, we have hence prepared a package of their scientific application, i.e. install DebianPts:boinc-app-seti and the local application is used to search for signals from outer space.||

It seems like boinc-app-seti (currently only in unstable), just like the later BOINC packages, will eventually be shipped via [[http://backports.debian.org|backports.debian.org]], not with the initial release. Ubuntu also provides backports to earlier versions.||
