UPDATE Fount the problem. Even though dpkg -l bootlogd said it was installed. some how back in January the bootlogd executable had been removed.Aptitude was able to purge/install the package and the log is now working in wheezy
The Sid is somewhat different. I moved the weird bootlogd.dpkg-old tobootlogd and restarted that service and it is now working. I think(?) the problem(s) occurred during the upgrade to bootlogd version 2.88dsf-22, which broke initscripts and sysvinit-utils. Anyway a reinstall on sid fixed it.
