amazon ec2ubuntu-10.04

I keep getting this message when I logged into my server in AWS EC2 via ssh

I think this is called MOTD

43 packages can be updated.
22 updates are security updates.

but I have already done 

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

I have also restarted my instance.

Please advise.

Another one of these "fine" Ubuntu-bugs... Check Ubuntu Bug #634387: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sysvinit/+bug/634387

I deleted the files "/etc/motd.tail" and "/etc/motd.tail.old" and did a logout / login to re-genereate a propper /etc/motd.
