Word on the street is that this is happening on multiple projects, not just NumberFields. According to this link, version 7.0.26 may resolve the issue.

7.0.26 is a Berkeley build, in other words a build from the BOINC developers. They build BOINC on the latest Ubuntu LTS release which was, until recently, Ubuntu 10.x. Now the LTS is Ubuntu 12.04 but there is no guarantee the BOINC developers have switched to 12.04, they may still be using 10.x. If you're running 12.04 and the BOINC devs are building on 10.x then there is a good chance BOINC 7.0.26 from Berkeley (the BOINC site) won't work for you. In that case you need to follow the instructions in this post from the SETI forums and install 7.0.27 which works for Frank, me and many others running Ubuntu 12.04. I suppose another option might be to drop back to a 6.x.x BOINC but you might run into a problem with missing shared libs if you do.

ARRGH!

here we go again.

we don't know which silly fraggle decided that 7.0.24 was the version that made it into the 12.04 bundle. it definitely was everything but recommended by that time.

DA, and the crazy CCC - boinc would simply be nothing without the few guys out here which are figuring out where the heck they fucked up this time again.
