This code is problematic as it removes /etc/motd for new installs and during an upgrade from Precise. New installs: $ dpkg --compare-versions "" lt "2.88dsf-24" && echo true || echo false true Upgrade from Precise: $ dpkg --compare-versions "2.88dsf-13.10ubuntu11.1" lt "2.88dsf-24" && echo true || echo false true To me it looks like this issue is present since Saucy and got introduced with version 2.88dsf-41ubuntu1.
