Its not clear to me what exactly the bug you are reporting is about. The
file '/etc/default/motd-news-config' is provided by the package motd-
news-config which in turn is part of the cloud-image, server, and
ubuntu-server-raspi packages.  If that package is not installed then the
file will not exist and you should not see the motd-news message. The
opt out directions to which you have linked say the following "The motd-
news portion is highlighted in green, the other pieces of the MOTD are
informational only and do not reach out to the internet for any
information". Could you please elaborate on what you want this bug to be
about?

  This wouldn't be a problem if it was actually removable without having
  to build custom metapackages.
