SYNOPSIS


update-boinc-applinks
[options]

DESCRIPTION

update-boinc-applinks creates (or removes) symbolic links for anonymous BOINC applications and their associated app_info.xml files in a given BOINC data directory.

Note: update-boinc-applinks is an extension for Debian users and is only available in Debian's boinc-client package.

OPTIONS

For a full summary of options, run update-boinc-applinks --help.

Show help message and all options.
Create symbolic links and project directories.
Remove symbolic links and empty project directories.
Manage symbolic links in the given directory DIR. If this option is not present, DIR defaults to the current working directory.
Manage symbolic links only for the given project PROJECT. Run update-boinc-applinks --list-projects to get a list of projects for which anonymous applications are available and therefore can be replaced with PROJECT. If this option is not present, update-boinc-applinks will manage symbolic links for all available projects.
Show a list of projects for which anonymous applications are available. Normally those applications are provided by packages called boinc-app-PROJECT (e.g. boinc-app-seti).
