The motd file still reports Debian from upgrade path

The /etc/motd file still reports Debian from an upgrade path of Debian Jessie to Devuan Jessie.

I tried dpkg-reconfigure base-files, but nothing changed I think its because the install_from_default function in postinst.in file will not overwrite an existing file.

Not sure If this is intentional or unintentional.

    This issue has to do with: debian-installer#54 (closed)

    Currently, motd usesuname -snrvmwhich spits "Debian" all over the place. One alternative would be to useuname -rnsomwhich shows:Linux ascii 4.9.0-3-amd64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
