I am uploading backports for Precise, Oneiric and Lucid to the testing PPA at https://launchpad.net/~pkg-boinc/+archive/testing .
Once I get positive feedback I might upload/copy it to the normal PPA, too.

About getting it fixed in Ubuntu directly, I think it just needs to be rebuilt / re-uploaded. And from doing so in a Precise pbuilder that seems to be the case.
While at it, it could make sense to go with the latest release (6.12~svn1305-1, instead of 5.13+cvs20060510-7ubuntu1) directly.

The Ubuntu delta is:
boinc-app-seti (5.13+cvs20060510-7ubuntu1) oneiric; urgency=low

  * debian/rules: add include directories to fix FTBFS.
  * Rebuild gets rid of openssl0.9.8 binary dependency.

Trying to build Debian's version in a Precise pbuilder fails, presumely the include directories are missing. I think the Ubuntu patch might be the following:

    CXXFLAGS += -I/usr/include/boinc
    CXXFLAGS += -I/usr/include/boinc/lib

Steffen, why is this not necessary in Debian?

Apart from that I wonder what the meaning of boinc-app-seti is - what is the difference from attaching to the SETI project via BOINC itself?

@LocutusOfBorg: The "project" you are referring to is just a code mirror of the pkg-boinc Git branch from Debian (git://anonscm.debian.org/pkg-boinc/boinc.git).
