As I posted, the problem is NOT in the boinc-app-seti package at all.
The start-stop-daemon for boinc (boinc-client) was producing a pid file
containing a different pid number than the actual boinc pid! This would cause
the distribution /etc/init.d/boinc_client fails to stop the boinc and this
causes all the installation problems for seti.
I changed that script to simply NOT test the pid number but killall boinc if
any such pid file exists. Boinc-app-seti will now install.
This but, degraded as appropriate belong to either boinc (boinc_client) or
start-stop-daemon.
