** Description changed: [Impact] - * Users of containers may never see the MOTD of the container if they are always to the container's shell without PAM being involved. - * MOTD contains important information about the system's health including the security updates to be installed thus it is desired to show MOTD in container shells, too. - * The fix is creating a snippet in /etc/profile.d which shows, but not necessarily updates MOTD once a day. + * Users of containers may never see the MOTD of the container if they are always to the container's shell without PAM being involved. + * MOTD contains important information about the system's health including the security updates to be installed thus it is desired to show MOTD in container shells, too. + * The fix is creating a snippet in /etc/profile.d which shows, but not necessarily updates MOTD once a day. [Test Case] - * TODO + * Install show-motd in an LXC container. + * Observe MOTD shown when starting the container shell with + $ lxc shell <container name> [Regression Potential] - * TODO + * The new functionality is added in a new package, shown-motd, thus users of update-motd should not observe any regression. + * The change in update-motd is adding the --show-only optional option. Both the new and old code patch is exercised in autopkgtest and should be safe. [Other Info] - * The fix relies on PAM setting MOTD_SHOWN=pam to avoid printing MOTD + * The fix relies on PAM setting MOTD_SHOWN=pam to avoid printing MOTD twice.
