Bug#1121620: boinctui: Please build against OpenSSL instead of GnuTLS OpenSSL-Wrapper

[Andreas Metzler]

Source: boinctui
Version: 2.7.2-1
Severity: normal
User: ametzler at debian.org
Usertags: gnutls-openssl

Hello,

I would like to drop the GnuTLS OpenSSL-Wrapper library from Debian like
other distros already did. It has not seen any significant activity
upstream for ages and since Debian has taken to treat OpenSSL as a
system library there is no need for using the GnuTLS OpenSSL-wrapper
even for GPLv2 software.

Boinc can switch to openssl with
