Title:
  "stdin: is not a tty" due to "mesg n" instead of "tty -s && mesg n" in
  .profile

Status in base-files package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in xen-3.1 package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Upstreaming from https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46913
  :

  This used to happen at the start of every Puppet run, because of the
  line "mesg n" in /root/.profile. The shell provisioner is actually
  invoked to fix the problem by changing it to "tty -s && mesg n". This
  fixes the problem for every subsequent run. Still, I'd like to prevent
  it from appearing even once.

  Ubuntu could fix this by adding a check to .profile.
