[Boost-build] How to force overwriting a file?

Hi,

I have the following problem: I build documentation written in Quickbook, but I
want to replace one of the generated files with a custom version. In some way I
have to let bjam know I want to overwrite the file (or delete the generated file
so it is copied via install command). Could anybody give me a clue how to do
this? Thanks in advance!

This is part of my Jamfile.v2:

boostbook constrained_value-doc : src/constrained_value.qbk ;
install html/constrained_value : src/reference.html :
<dependency>constrained_value-doc ; # doesn't work

Best regards,
Robert
