Title:
  show-motd: Show MOTD from /etc/profile.d snippet in the first shell
  every day

Status in update-motd package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in update-motd source package in Eoan:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact] (Compared to LP: #1855089)

   * Users are shown MOTD once a day but only in a shell started at a
  later hour than the one that showed MOTD the day before. This a bit
  confusing and harder to predict than showing MOTD in the first started
  shell every day. This fix implements the latter.

  [Test Case]
   * MOTD should be shown when touch refers to a date yesterday:

   $ install show-motd
   $ unset MOTD_SHOWN
   $ touch -d 'now - 23 hours' $HOME/.motd_shown
   $ bash -i /etc/profile.d/update-motd.sh
  ...
   $ touch -d 'now - 25 hours' $HOME/.motd_shown
   $ bash -i /etc/profile.d/update-motd.sh
  ...
   $ touch -d 'now - 1 hour' $HOME/.motd_shown
   $ bash -i /etc/profile.d/update-motd.sh
  ...

  [Regression Potential]

   * Since this is an improvement of the new functionality only
  available in -proposed there is no extra regression potential compared
  to the change introducing the new functionality in LP: #1855089.
