Abandoning boinc-client

[Mattia Verga]

Hi all,
despite my efforts and many wasted hours I'm unable to build recent 
versions of boinc-client (I'm stuck with errors about gtk-2.0 and 
gtk-3.0 co-existence).
I'm only a co-maintainer, but the primary maintainer has abandoned the 
package to its fate long time ago (but he never orphaned it) and there 
are a lot of bugs that he never cared about. So, despite the fact that 
the package will not be orphaned, it will be de facto when I will 
abandon it.

It would be nice if someone more skilled can take some care to it. Apart 
from problems due to gtk-3.0, I think the way boinc-client works should 
be rethought: the daemon mode leads to many problems accessing GPU 
computing capabilities and detection of user activity in X. In my 
opinion boinc should be started by user and not by a system process and 
it must run project files into user home directory to allow more users 
on the same workstation.

Today I've made the last changes to clean up some stuff. I hope someone 
other has interest to take care of it.
Thank you

Mattia
