# release-upgrade-available is provided by /usr/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/release-upgrade-motd start on ( file FILE=/var/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/release-upgrade-available EVENT=create ) I believe the intent of the release-upgrade-motd is to only check for a new release at most once per day, and based off the data in the log file (comment 3) it is being checked for more than that (or the file is being "created"). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1307747 Title: update-notifier-release upstart job logs excessively To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-notifier/+bug/1307747/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
