I do not agree on the removal, maybe we can still maitain boinc-app-seti on
shape.

Yes, but on boinc-dev -3 there is a fix for this, also the bug for
boinc-app-seti has a working patch to solve the FTBFS.

I've been negligent with boin-app-seti and pkg-boinc related packages this days
:(, we need more manpower on the group thought.

But I'm planning an upload for boinc and boinc-app-seti soon.
