This broke for me because /etc/update-motd.d/50-landscape-sysinfo which calls /usr/bin/landscape-sysinfo has an ImportError that is caught silently.
The ImportError is caused by a weird bug with python namespaces, which occurs because I have python-zope.cachedescriptors installed in addition to python-zope.interface. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zope.interface/+bug/688335 You can fix this error by removing /usr/lib/python2.7/dist- packages/zope/__init__.py -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/661654 Title: pam_motd should log the error when run-parts fails To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pam/+bug/661654/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
