Greetings Kevin:
Here is what I use for setiatome: dpkg -l setiathome
ii setiathome 3.03-5 SETI@Home Client (install package)
The debian installer fetches the binary package and globally installs it.
All I need to do is make a setiathome directory in my home directory and then
move there to start it. I have never had to adjust permissions of any files
are executables.
On my remote box, I made a short script called seti that starts setiathome
with my preferred command arguments.
