Ubuntu Server 14.04.2 LTS: MOTD always displays the same packages to be updated

Since yesterday I always get this message when I log in via SSH: 2 packages can be updated. 0 updates are security updates. There's nothing to be updated running apt-get update and apt-get upgrade: sudo apt-get upgrade Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Calculating upgrade... Done 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded. (1 not upgraded: I can't find it) I've followed these posts but to no avail: [Ubuntu tells me I have packages to upgrade when I don't](http://askubuntu.com/questions/36517/ubuntu-tells-me-i-have-packages-to-upgrade-when-i-dont) [ubuntu server: SSH banner telling to update packages but nothing to update](http://serverfault.com/questions/270094/ubuntu-server-ssh-banner-telling-to-update-packages-but-nothing-to-update) Any hints/suggestions? Thanks in advance.
