Package: boinc-client
Version: 5.10.45-2
Severity: important


boinc-client 5.10.45-2 fails to run for any significant period of time on my 
powerpc (mac mini) hardware. The version in debian stable works with no trouble 
(5.4.11-4). Here is a segment from the log file and a back trace using gdb.

It seems that this bug has been already fixed upstream in changeset 14996[1]. 
The next upload of BOINC 6.x to unstable will contain this fix, note also 
that the current version of BOINC in experimental already contains this fix. 
Therefore I'm marking this bug now as fixed in boinc/6.1.15-1.
