Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 22.04 LTS running Boinc 7.18.1+dfsg-4 problems. 1st. after
install starting the Boinc client error msg. is you do not have access
to Var Lib. I corrected that by adding my user id to the Boinc group and
changing the ownership of the group in the Boinc-client folder in etc
lib. from root to Boinc. After restarting Boinc the next msg. is "Boinc
Manager (Pre-Release) Daemon start failure. Then the client and manager
disconnect indicated by the icon in the lower right corner of Boinc. I
even tried having the boinc daemon start up at IPL and it made no
difference I receive the same error msg. Another Ubuntu user in Ubuntu
Redit described the same problem and couldn't fix it so his solution was
to restore Ubuntu 20.04 and Boinc worked fine again. Is this really a
Pre-Release of Boinc, and if so why was it included in a Long Term
Support release instead of the current production version of Boinc for
linux? Thanks for your help. Cheers, Ace
