I just uploaded update-motd_1.6. I hope that this version satisfies the requests of both pitti and cjwatson.

Notably this release:
 * eliminates the init script entirely (purging it from the system in the postinst if upgrading from a version <1.6)
 * purges all debconf handling (config, postinst, po, templates)
 * installs /etc/cron.d/update-motd as a conffile
 * adds --enable/--disable mechanisms directly into /usr/sbin/update-motd itself, which will rm/touch /var/lib/update-motd/disable, which will persist across boots.
 * adjusts the build and documentation accordingly
 * writes a timestamp to /var/run/update-motd.lastrun

Can you please reconsider for main inclusion? This is still blocking landscape-client.

Thanks,
:-Dustin
