Title:
  boinc-manager 7.2.42+gfsg-1 brick 14.04 new clean install

Status in “dpkg” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  New clean fully updated xubuntu 14.04 x64 install.

  Attempted BOINC Manager intall from Ububntu Software Manager.

  During instal, screen blanked, monitor turned off, system became
  completely unresponsive.

  Remote login failed.

  On reboot, system again became unresponsive.

  Log in from another linux distro, logs showed segfault.

  Threw in towel, re-installed.

  I expected the installation to complete at least without brickeing the
  system.

  What happened, system bricked.
