Install error 'failed to create symbolic link' #5564
Comments
to fix the i386 warning you'd need this line in soruce deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/boinc.gpg arch=amd64] https://boinc.berkeley.edu/dl/linux/alpha/jammy jammy main |
I couldn't repo on 2nd computerm so I'm not sure exactly how to repo |
I had some issues on one computer also, where the /var/lib/boinc directory was created but on other computer its a symlink to /var/lib/boinc-client |
I'll try to fix that in the upgrade script. |
I can move to the designed location 💯 /etc/boinc-client is the correct place for the config files? |
https://github.com/BOINC/boinc/wiki/UnixClientPackage These pages talk about on Debian that it should be /var/lib/boinc-client, so some documenation clean up as well. |
