Yes, I think you should manually install the links (w/ update-rc.d for your 
convinience) to /etc/init.d/bootlogd.

Also check that script, if it checks for /etc/default/bootlogd. If it does, 
than you can edit the init script (comment that check out), or touch 
that /etc/default/bootlogd file. Mine is looking like this:

###------------------------

$ cat /etc/default/bootlogd
# Run bootlogd at startup ?
BOOTLOGD_ENABLE=Yes
