Package: mythtv-status Version: 0.10.8-1 Severity: normal Hello,
I just installed this package and the motd updating functionality is not working. I can see that it is correctly populating /var/run/motd.dynamic but that is not being incorporated into the actual motd (wherever that is/however that happens). In a mail to mythtv-user[0] another user noticed that apparently it is now necessary (on Ubuntu) to create a snippet in /etc/update-motd.d. I've not tried this on my Debian system yet, but I note that the directory does exist. The patch there is ok as a local workaround, I think, but maybe not appropriate for the package, I'd guess either creating /var/run/mythtv-status.motd and having a snippet produce that or just having a snippet produce the desired content on the fly would be better. Thanks, Ian.
