NAME

       update-boinc-applinks  -  create/remove  symbolic  links  for anonymous
       BOINC applications

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.

       -h, --help
              Show help message and all options.

       --create
              Create symbolic links and project directories.

       --remove
              Remove symbolic links and empty project directories.

       --data-dir=DIR
              Manage symbolic links in the given directory DIR. If this option
              is not present, DIR defaults to the current working directory.

       --project=PROJECT
              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.

       --list-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).
