Dear Sir, Madam,

I'd like to announce a bug in the sourcecode of BOINC. I am trying to compile BOINC on my Mac, but I always get the same error, no matter if using BuildMacBOINC or XCode 2.2:

I hope that you can fix that fast. If possible, I'd like to be informed, when the error ist fixed. And I will say, much files are at the XCode-Project, but not at the server. :( It's that normaly?

I would also like to know how to compile BOINC in Linux because I don't understand the manual very well. My Mac is a PowerMac G4 with Mac OS X 10.4.3.

Sincerely,
d4d4
