Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: boinc-client

boinc-client 6.4.5+dfsg-2ubuntu2.
Currently boinc-client init script (/etc/init.d/boinc-client) uses schedtool to set scheduling policy for BOINC client. I think it should use chrt(1) for this, because:
* schedtool has to be installed separately, and nothing except boinc-client depend on it.
* chrt is a part of util-linux package, which is essential, so almost every Ubuntu user has it installed.

** Affects: boinc (Ubuntu)
