Comment 70 for bug 98955

Hi Jean-Baptiste,

You can force dpkg to overwrite files by adding the --force-overwrite param to the command to install the bootlogd .deb:

sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite bootlogd_2.86.02_*.deb

Tested this on jaunty and it produces a nice /var/log/bootmsg file.

Hope this helps,
