[Bug 659738] Re: Duplicate welcome message in motd (caused by postinst script creating motd.tail file)

[Barry Warsaw]

Verified that the patch works as intended on a Lucid VM.  If the bogus
/etc/motd.tail file exists, it gets removed, and no new bogus
/etc/motd.tail file is created.  Uploaded to lucid-proposed.

** Changed in: sysvinit (Ubuntu Lucid)
       Status: Triaged => In Progress
