Bug Description
When installing stock drupal7 on precise, it says:
There is a security update available for your version of Drupal. To ensure the security of your server, you should update immediately! See the available updates page for more information and to install your missing updates.
One or more problems were detected with your Drupal installation. Check the status report for more information.
it seems drupal 7.22 is available, clicking through to upgrades, says
Automatic updating of Drupal core is not supported. See the upgrade guide for information on how to update Drupal core manually.
I guess a packaged version is not supposed to change /usr/share/druapl7 anyway, nor am I sure whether these count as ubuntu security upgrades or whether the package will be reliable if updated as often as upstream. Thought I'd report anyway -- this is strange behaviour for an ubuntu package.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Since the package referred to in this bug is in universe or multiverse, it is community maintained. If you are able, I suggest coordinating with upstream and posting a debdiff for this issue. When a debdiff is available, members of the security team will review it and publish the package.
