I explained in http://bugs.debian.org/441792 why changing local preferences with the BOINC Manager is not possible with the default configuration. Could you please test if the local preferences are saved after you've changed the permission of the /etc/boinc_client/global_prefs_override.xml file? I've also said in this mail that I'll document this in boinc-manager's or boinc-client's README.Debian, but obviously I didn't. :-( To address your report, do you think it would be enough to explain why local preferences are not saved how this can be changed?
