[Bug 1193864] Re: broadcast after shut down

[Adam Conrad]

This is just the wall(1) message being written to all the consoles to
warn logged in users about the shut down.  The term "broadcast" there
refers to all the local users/consoles, it's not sending a message to
the mother ship or anything. :)

** Package changed: dpkg (Ubuntu) => ubuntu

** Changed in: ubuntu
       Status: New => Invalid
