Petalinux--ERROR:conflicts between attempted installs

I am trying to modify /etc/inittab file to add a restart function. To check whether I can add a line in inittab, I created a demo. I created a .bb file under proect-spec/meta-user/recipes-apps:

#
# This is the GPIO-DEMO apllication recipe
#
#

SUMMARY = "automatic-restart application"
SECTION = "PETALINUX/apps"
LICENSE = "MIT"
LIC_FILES_CHKSUM = "file://${COMMON_LICENSE_DIR}/MIT;md5=0835ade698e0bcf8506ecda2f7b4f302"
SRC_URI = "file://* \
        "
S = "${WORKDIR}"
FILESEXTAPATHS_preprend := "${THISDIR}/files:"
#inherit update-rc.d

INITSCRIPT_NAME = "hello"
INITSCRIPT_PARAMS = "start 98 5 ."

do_install() {
        install -d ${D}${sysconfdir}/init.d
        install -m 0755 ${S}/hello ${D}${sysconfdir}/init.d/hello
    install -d ${D}/opt/hello
    cp ${S}/hello.elf ${D}/opt/hello/

}

do_install_append(){

    echo "adding a line" >> ${D}${sysconfdir}/inittab

}

FILES_${PN} += "${sysconfdir}/*"
FILES_${PN} += "/opt/hello/"

By the way, this file is used firsly put an .elf file under /etc/init.d and it worked. However, when I was adding these below code block to check whether I can modify "inittab" :

do_install_append(){
    echo "adding a line" >> ${D}${sysconfdir}/inittab

}

then building the petalinux project, I encountered with this error: "file /etc/inittab conflicts between attempted installs of hello-1.0-r0.cortexa9hf_neon and sysvinit-inittab-2.88dsf-r10.plnx_zynq7"

This is a well known issue in Yocto which is you cannot ship two packages(recipes) that are installing the same file in the final rootfs.

So, either you remove one of hello or sysvinit-inittab from the image, or use update-alternatives class as mentioned in this question.
