When creating a new project with the --test_app switch the script tries to copy the file '../samples/example_app/uc2' which is not present at this moment. This could be solved in two ways:

1. Test if this file exists before actually creating the project and show a message to the user that he should compile the samples first and then retry project creation.

or

2. Incorporate the samples directory in the make process so that the samples are build when the whole BOINC source is build. Create the link to libstdc++.a before this.

I recently noticed that Boinc 5.10.28 had stopped running on my computer. I can find no reason for this, except for this error message that appears when running the client:

./boinc: symbol lookup error: ./boinc: undefined symbol: gzopen64

It has been doing this now for approximately two days. I found posts on various forums relating this error to libxml, but I have not updated my libxml packages (version 2.6.30-1 under Fedora 8) since installing Fedora 8 about a month ago.

When the BOINC Manager saves window settings and other state information it does so to the file called ".BOINC Manager", which has a space in the name. Spaces are generally bad in filenames in Unix, so I suggest that this be changed to .BOINC_Manager.

This has caused me problems in creating an rpm to install on Linux.

To be backward compatible the Manager could always write .BOINC_Manager but for reading it could look for the version with a space if the version with an underscore is not found.
