Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal

This is the scientific application that is controlled by the
boinc-client. The client fetches and returns data, the scientific app
does all the computation. 99.9999% of all BOINC users download a binary
from the BOINC servers and execute that. But how could we Debian folks
render our users to such an insecure sin ... however practical that is.

The boinc-app-seti package is not used by the user directly but only
through the boinc-client. It is completely optional to something
that is already optional. Sounds like 'extra' to me.

No idea about how many are reading this ... please just all contribute
to some scientific project through BOINC with your idle time.
