Resolution

Manual Fix

You need to assess how important the boot service is to the application so that you can determine if it matters whether the boot service behaves as intended. You then need to do one of the following:

If the boot service is unimportant, it is probably safe to deploy the package with slightly reduced functionality.
If the boot service is important but separable, install the boot service on the main machine, and virtualize the rest of the application. A modified virtual package can then be deployed successfully.
If the boot service is important but not separable, this package will not function well, and it should not be deployed.
