I’ve been running a freebsd compiled seti version 8 here for months.
I think someone needs to update the port.

i put the precomiled binaries on my website at :

www.pozo.com/seti <http://www.pozo.com/seti>

this is for current amd64

seti-pkg.tar.bz2     —  precompiled

setiathome.tar.bz  — the source trees for boinc and seti current  — I will update this in about 20 minutes so wait a bit before downloading


I’ve been using this since last summer and works fine. a linux port would be nice but
