Here the bigger, but more architecturally complete solution for wily&upstream (which is actually identical at this time).
Summary: - move the actual updating part out of the pam based trigger completely (avoids slowdown) - pam based motd now only prints the cached info (if existing) - hook into apt with APT::Update::Post-Invoke-Success to update the cached file (thanks mvo and pitti for that good IRC discussion) - removed one level of indirection (apt hook -> stamp file -> on pam login check stamp -> update) to the more separate (apt hook -> update cached info) (on pam login -> print cached info) - while the chance of a concurrent update is now (almost) impossible it keeps the atomic cache update and cleanup to be sure It was working find in all my builds and tests on wily.
