Bug Description

Binary package hint: update-motd

I may be wrong, but doesn't policy require packages to have a changelog.Debian.gz? It doesn't in 3.4-0ubuntu1 in karmic

Package: update-motd

Description: superceded by pam_motd in libpam-modules
 .
 This package installs a script in /etc/profile.d that dynamically generates
 a message-of-the-day by running scripts installed in /etc/update-motd.d,
 in lexical order.
 .
 Other packages, or system administrators should symlink scripts into
 /etc/update-motd.d, pre-pending a 2-digit number to handle ordering.
 .
 The functionality formerly provided by this package is now integrated into
 pam_motd, in libpam-modules.
