Comment 18 for bug 550561

This bug was fixed in the package base-files - 5.0.0ubuntu14

---------------
base-files (5.0.0ubuntu14) lucid; urgency=low

  Fix double-printing of motd.tail, LP: #550561
  * debian/postinst.in: motd.tail should no longer be generated by this
    package; rather it's where the sysadmin would add static text to
    append to the dynamically generated /etc/motd
  * debian/update-motd.d/*, debian/rules:
    - move update-motd scripts to this dir, clean up install rules
      (scripts were getting installed in two places)
    - 00-header: add the lsb_release information, which seems at least
      as pertinent as the kernel's version and build-date
    - 00-header, 99-footer: split the header (uname, lsb_release) and
      the footer (admin's motd.tail) to two separate scripts
