[Bug 1926819] Re: Empty MOTD on up-to-date systems (includes fix)

[Lucas Albuquerque Medeiros de Moura]

Thank you for raising this. The change was made intentionally to reduce
noise to users when there wasn't anything to act upon. We're always
keeping an eye out for improving things and will keep this open as we
discuss ways we can make things better.
