Title:
  ubuntu-wsl: Please recommend show-motd

Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in ubuntu-meta source package in Eoan:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

    * Desktop users of WSL are 'dropped into' the Ubuntu shell instead of 
logging in to the WSL container, thus they don't see MOTD. Then don't get 
information about the system's state via desktop notifications either, because 
the default Ubuntu WSL system does not start the Ubuntu desktop.
    * To show important system information to users being dropped to a shell 
directly the show-motd package was created to show MOTD using a /etc/profile.d 
script.
    * To have this script in place ubuntu-wsl needs to recommend show-motd.

  [ Test Case ]

   * Use 'apt-cache show ubuntu-wsl' to check if ubuntu-wsl recommends
  update-motd.

  [ Regression Potential ]

   * Pulling in a /etc/profile.d script that exits can make the started
  shell exit immediately. For this reason the shell does not exit in any
  case. The script can also throw confusing errors. To avoid such errors
  the script is tested in an autopkgtest and many related packages were
  fixed where errors were observed. The update-motd package adds Breaks:
  against related package versions which are known to show errors in
  MOTD when being run as a regular user. See LP: #1855271 for more
  details.

  [ Other Info ]

   * The update-motd SRU needs to be accepted before this ubuntu-meta SRU 
because show-motd is a new binary package of update-motd.
   * The SRU upload to Eoan waits for the acceptance of update-motd to Eoan and 
also for the seed merge.
