Please could you add the additional change below.  This just ensures
that in the unlikely even that scripts are present in
/etc/update-motd.d, they aren't run and displayed twice.

If it would be possible to update this this week, that would be
much appreciated--I'm going to make an additional sysvinit
upload to experimental shortly, and hopefully to unstable by the
end of the week, so it would be nice to have this in place before
it goes into unstable.


Thanks again,
Roger
