I have the 4.43 version installed and running and it just created a folder under my home directory and installed it's files there. What do you mean by 3rd party boinc apps? The projects? when you run boinc and feed it your distributed computing project information it automatically downloads the software to run the project as well as work. I run the Climate Prediction project with minimal problems. There are other applications around that users have created to monitor boinc and multiple computers etc which are tar balls.
