I looked at what happens with different versions, and what the package does: squeeze: root@jadzia:/# ls -la /etc/news/motd* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 239 Dec 30 2010 /etc/news/motd.news wheezy (upgrade from squeeze): root@jadzia:/# ls -la /etc/news/motd* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 239 Dec 30 2010 /etc/news/motd.nnrpd wheezy (fresh install): root@jadzia:/# ls -la /etc/news/motd* ls: cannot access /etc/news/motd*: No such file or directory In the current version, motd.innd and motd.nnrpd are installed only as examples. So both of them are missing in /etc/news for fresh installs. On upgrades, innupgrade is called from the postinst and renames motd.news to motd.nnrpd, and motd.innd is not installed. (No idea at the moment how to represent the move done via innupgrade with dpkg-maintscript-helper.) Cheers, gregor -- .''`.
