dpkg: `error setting ownership of symlink'

[Mike Hill <mikehill@hgeng.com>]

Is there something I can do to get around this error?

	debian# dpkg -i tk4.2.4.2p2-7.deb
	(Reading database ... 36894 files and directories currently
installed.)
	Unpacking tk4.2 (from tk4.2.4.2p2-7.deb) ...
	dpkg: error processing tk4.2.4.2p2-7.deb (--install):
	 error setting ownership of symlink
`usr/doc/tk4.2/changelog.gz': No such file or directory
	Errors were encountered while processing:
	 tk4.2.4.2p2-7.deb

Thanks,

Mike
