The ping comment on the bug report has be promptly dealt with by the maintainer and the build for EPEL9 has now been done and will in 7 days work through testing and then drop into EPEL9 for all to install.
I hope this is OK for you and dispels the concerns with regards community and how responsive folks within it are.

Oh, very nice! Thank you Phil. I appreciate random acts of senseless kindness. :-)
It will be interesting to see how dnf reacts when the el9 package for boinc goes live. Will dnf recognize it as an upgrade from the el8 package? I will let the group know what happens.

Hi,
The EPEL 8 version is boinc-client-7.20.2-1.el8 and the version submitted to EPEL 9 is boinc-client-7.20.2-4.el9, so yes it will be seen as an upgrade once it passes out of testing.

As promised, I am sending an update on this. The EL9 package for boinc client has indeed appeared in the repositories. I ran "dnf upgrade" on the system last night, and it successfully pulled in the package as an upgrade to the EL8 package I installed a few weeks ago.
That closes out this issue. Thanks Phil for prodding the packaging process along.
