[support] Xubuntu update manager error when updating Drupal 5.7

[Peter Dow (DSS)]

Had a bunch of updates to apply, and among them was one for drupal:

Setting up drupal5 (5.7-lubuntul) ...
dbconfig-common: writing config to /etc/dbconfig-common/drupal5.conf
Replacing config file /etc/drupal/5/sites/default/dbconfig.php with new 
version
dbconfig-common: flushing administrative password
ln: creating symbolic link '/etc/apache/conf.d/drupal.conf': File exists
dpkg: error processing drupal5 (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 drupal5

Judging by the date modified on /etc/dbconfig-common/drupal5.conf 
(07/01/2008), writing to this file failed.

/etc/drupal/5/sites/default/dbconfig.php did get replaced.

etc/apache/conf.d/drupal.conf shows as a broken link.

How do I fix this?
