Package: login
Version: 1:4.2-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Customizing a dynamic MOTD in /etc/update-motd.d does not 
work as expected.  As a simple testcase, create a script 
there that simply runs "date".  Upon login, the date of the 
*previous* login, not the current date, will get printed.

This is the same problem as bug 757059 (now fixed)
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=757059

Please consider applying the same fix, i.e., move the 
"noupdate" from the first to the second call to pam_motd.so 
in debian/login.pam .
