Actually, start-stop-daemon WILL start boinc just fine. The pid file contains a different pid than that yielded by pidof boinc. This does not sit well with the distribution boinc_client init.d script. Workaround: either explicitely set the pidfile content to pidof boinc or change the isrunning function to not test the pid, just file's existance (ALWAYS remove on stop). Either way, boinc-app-seti will then install/remove correctly.
Bug should be moved the start-stop-daemon or boinc. (Actually, I have been running the debian boinc-app-seti version by simply copying the lib/setiathome_enhanced to my boinc directory and renaming it appropriately (since I had previously been running a locally downloaded version from this directory). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
