Bug description:
  Hi,

  We get these cron spam weekly:

  | Received: by mysystem.mydomain.local (Postfix)
  |         id B19E32E806B; Sun, 15 Aug 2021 06:47:03 +0000 (UTC)
  | Delivered-To: root@mysystem.mydomain.local
  | Received: by mysystem.mydomain.local (Postfix, from userid 0)
  |         id 9DD002E8075; Sun, 15 Aug 2021 06:47:03 +0000 (UTC)
  | From: Cron Daemon <root@mysystem.mydomain.local>
  | To: root@mysystem.mydomain.local
  | Subject: Cron <root@mysystem> test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && 
run-parts --report /etc/cron.weekly )

  | /etc/cron.weekly/update-notifier-common:
  | New release '18.04.5 LTS' available.
  | Run 'do-release-upgrade' to upgrade to it.

  This is output from /etc/cron.weekly/update-notifier-common calling
  /usr/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/release-upgrade-motd

  That's fine for when you have a system or two, but probably not when
  you manage many. Any chance the cron job can be updated so stdout is
  silenced? So:

  | # Check to see whether there is a new version of Ubuntu available
  | /usr/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/release-upgrade-motd > /dev/null

  
  Thanks
