Take a look at mine (mailcrypt's one): it puts the file in the right package specific directory, but it doesn't check if the file already exist, it merely overwrites it if it's there (on the ground that package specific directory is propriety of the package itself, and nobody else (package or human) should thinker with it: things will work, unless someone does something he is not supposed to do, such as changing CompilationLog.gz permissions (i.e., if you thinker with things you shouldn't, you deserve errors happening); maybe it's a nasty supposition, maybe not).
