Bug Description
Upstreaming from https:/
This used to happen at the start of every Puppet run, because of the line "mesg n" in /root/.profile. The shell provisioner is actually invoked to fix the problem by changing it to "tty -s && mesg n". This fixes the problem for every subsequent run. Still, I'd like to prevent it from appearing even once.
Ubuntu could fix this by adding a check to .profile.
