Public bug reported:
Suppose a system with systemd 252 and rsyslog installed. Install
busybox-syslogd version 1:1.36.1-3ubuntu1, which will cause rsyslog to
be removed (but not purged). The install of busybox-syslogd will fail
as follows:
Failed to preset unit, file "/etc/systemd/system/syslog.service" already
exists and is a symlink to "/lib/systemd/system/rsyslog.service".
The failure can also be seen in the reverse direction - busybox-syslogd
1:1.36.1-3ubuntu1 installed, then install rsyslog.
With systemd 253, we instead see:
Removed "/etc/systemd/system/syslog.service".
Workarounds:
* use systemd 253 when available
* purge the existing system-log-daemon before installing the new one
