Hi. The only thing that RabbitMQ does about upgrades is update its own 
data structures when the server installation has already been upgraded. 
That's what you're seeing in the log.

So the question you need to answer is "what is upgrading the installed 
server?" I'm afraid I can't help you there, but I promise it is not 
RabbitMQ itself. Probably some script is running "apt-get dist-upgrade" 
or similar.

Cheers, Simon
