4.43 is the "current" boinc manager for linux so its not obsolete. But I agree its time to upgrade to 5.2.12 . its a nice manager and full of features

4.43 is the older version
5.2.xx is the recommended version

Windows users: if you were having problems attaching to SETI@home, please download new client software (5.2.12) and try again. We have fixed some problems involving personal Internet Firewalls.

The only version I haven't had any problems with is 4.19 .. so yeah, out of date but still functioning just fine. No need to fix something that isn't broken right?

actually uninstalling the boinc process is unnecessary and may cause you to lose WU's that are already onboard. The easiest way to install an updated version is to allow Boinc to install into the same directory as the previous version. As long as the process isnt running, it will just overwrite any outdated files and install properly everytime.
