Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: mythtv-status
Mythtv status (version 0.7.3-2ubuntu2) has been sending annoying emails
to root every 10 minutes on my machine. (Related to, but *not* the same
as bug 311532.) Mythtv-status has also been clobbering other motd
altering scripts on my machine (such as the one notifying me of
available updates). It turns out that these two issues can be fixed
with the same fix.
mythtv-status is using its own system to update the motd. On the jaunty
system I'm running, there is already a nice motd update mechanism in
place that has two advantages:
a) it doesn't have the bug that causes an error to root when it updates, and
b) it doesn't clobber other motd update scripts.
The fix then is simple. Remove the mythtv-status init script, and add a
script in /etc/update-motd.d/ that calls mythtv-status.
Be well,
Will
