Berkeley has outsourced the distribution of Linux clients to the package maintainers for individual distributions, for several years now.
The latest versions endorsed by Berkeley and offered on http://boinc.berkeley.edu/download_all.php are: Recommended version: 7.2.42 (28 February 2014) 'Development' version: 7.4.22 (17 September 2014) Releases of the 7.4 branch stopped well before development was deemed complete: that branch reached 7.4.42 for Windows and Mac on 9 March 2015.

If he (or you) were to request that the people testing that version would add their outcome to that page, we (read David) can add Linux options to the Test Form ( https://boinc.berkeley.edu/alpha/test_form.php) page. As David explained in the past meeting a set of requirements are needed for a version to pass testing. I can't find so quickly that these are documented on this page, but that can always be added. -- Jord van der Elst.
