AMD users had to replace "libOpenCL.so.1" in the core directory to avoid a crash on openSUSE. This step can now be skipped by installing the latest rpm and adding the line FAHCLIENT_OPTIONS="--lib-path=/usr/lib64" to "/etc/sysconfig/fah-client". This line will already b...

OBS can build for Fedora/RHEL, right? Yes, it could. It fails with RHEL-7, because 'BuildRequires: scons' can't be resolved. Fedora-40 looks better, however a couple of adaptions are required. Please use upstream service file and merge there any useful options, dropping useless stuff like RuntimeDi...

Beta 8.3.5 is available at https://software.opensuse.org/package/f ... astet-beta

I will remove the alpha package soon, unless there's an explicit need for it.

While it is a stretch to call 8.3.5 stable, it is the current beta release. Ok, got it. Do I understand correctly that beta releases are announced here in the forum? Where do I get this "official" information from? BTW, some of your files are full of v7 cruft E.g., config.xml and fah-clie...

Why don't you supply the stable version 8.3.5? Not everybody want to be an alpha tester. There are more people who want just compute. Where do you have the information from that 8.3.5 is a stable version, or better than e.g. 8.3.9? There are more people who want just compute. Agreed. I happily acce...

cbang packaging machinery is working fine on Fedora/RHEL and openSUSE. Give https://foldingforum.org/viewtopic.php?p=363756#p363756 a try (you can git checkout the release tags before building). I'm not the least bit interested in local builds that rape rpmbuild. I'm using this https://build.opensu...

The main/master branches on github are development branches. There are tags for the released builds. There were already tagged revisions which did not build on Tumbleweed (incompatibility between cbang and fah-client). In future I'll cross-check with the "bleeding edge builds" before pick...

Nobody should be packaging alpha builds, which are frequently broken. Bleeding edge builds even more so. v8.3.8 is broken in multiple ways on all platforms. Thanks for the clear warning. I learnt it the hard way yesterday. While the github page comes with build instructions without any warning abou...

It remains 2 problems : - you don't add in kde menu a laucher to display https://beta.foldingathome.org - about nvidia opencl I assume the link /usr/lib64/libOpenCL.so -> libOpenCL.so.1 is missing OK, thanks for the feedback! I'll address these two points. Joseph committed fixes yesterday, so that ...

I don't plan to package this, because it's a "development web server" "to run your own frontend server for testing purposes."

Is there a good reason, why you would need that?

Have fun

Not good, sorry for that. Meanwhile it starts, however it doesn't recognize my GPU yet. The build scripts are really odd. I'm on it.

Kind regards

I switched to the beta SW too. "fah-client-bastet" version 8.3.8 is available for several openSUSE distributions at https://software.opensuse.org/package/fah-client-bastet

It's pretty much untested, feedback is welcome!

Have fun
