I installed initscripts 2.87dsf-4ubuntu17.4 out of lucid-proposed onto
two different Lucid VMs.

On  the first there was no /etc/motd.tail file, and the installation of
v17.4 did not create one.

On the second I had left a copy of the bogus motd.tail file generated by
the 2.87dsf-4ubuntu17.3 upgrade, and the installation of v17.4 did
delete the file as expected.

Afterwards I rebooted both VMs, and they appear to have run all the
startup scripts properly as they came back up....

(I actually installed all three packages generated from this source
[initscripts, sysv-rc, and sysvinit-utils].)
