Running BOINC 4.19 under Mandrake 10.1:
My syslog has the following error message:
Apr 16 08:43:54 Bach famd[4683]: stat on "client_state_next.xml" failed: No such file or directory.
It's true - the directory contains "client_state" and "client_state_prev".
Is this a buglet? Since everything's running OK, I'm not worried.

client_state_next.xml is a transient file that BOINC uses while it updates client_state.xml (writes current data to 'next', moves existing file to 'prev', moves 'next' to new file). I'm not familiar with famd, but I guess that client_state_next.xml has been deleted between famd detecting its creation and trying to access it.
