ok. So what happens when I install the new cron, and /usr/bin/savelog isn't in
it? Won't dpkg remove it, since /usr/bin/savelog has been removed from
/var/lib/dpkg/info/base.list?
Could be trouble...

As of version 2.9a-11, it hasn't. The perl script seems to try and fix it, but
didn't quite manage to do it on my system (which was 0.93R6). I believe the
maintainer of the package is looking into it.
