This bug was fixed in the package base-files - 10.1ubuntu2.10
---------------
base-files (10.1ubuntu2.10) bionic; urgency=medium
[ Andreas Hasenack ]
* motd/50-motd-news: don't include uptime in the user-agent string
(LP: #1886572)
* Move the /etc/default/motd-news conffile to the motd-news-config
package (LP: #1888575):
- d/base-files.maintscript: remove /etc/default/motd-news config file
on upgrade
- d/control: break on ubuntu-server << 1.417.5 to force an upgrade if
it is installed, which will pull motd-news-config and the conffile
back in
- d/motd-news-config.postinst:
+ handle the upgrade case where the motd-news config file was
changed while it belonged to base-files
+ disable motd-news if the config file was removed by hand before
the upgrade
- d/postinst.in: signal the motd-news-config package if the
motd-news config file was removed manually before the upgrade
- d/control: new motd-news-config package, carrying the
configuration file for the /etc/update-motd.d/50-motd-news script.
- d/rules, d/motd-news-config.install: /e/d/motd-news is in the
motd-news-config package now

* motd/50-motd-news: use wget instead of curl, since wget is standard but
curl is optional (LP: #1888572):
- This changes the timeout behavior slightly because wget does not have
an exact equivalent to curl's --max-time argument, we are using
--timeout instead.
