This is the message I get on Slackware 13.37 with the 7.0.27 BOINC:
-----
./boincmgr: error while loading shared libraries: libnotify.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
-----
What package has this libnotify.so.4? Until that gets figured out, 6.12.34 is working fine, I just hate all the time the 'notices' I keep getting to download the latest.

On a i386 box of mine, it's located at
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libnotify.so.4
hope it helps. As far as what package would install that lib file so you'll have it, I'm unsure.

Thanks guys. Looks like I'd also need to install a newer gtk+ (and all the deps for it) and I'm on dialup so it just isn't worth all the hassle just to run a newer version of BOINC when this older one is working fine. Appreciate the help though, thanks again.
