I thought it might be helpful to anyone still having this problem (where
the fix hasn't been backported yet) to mention that the workaround is
described in Bug #1607535 (essentially, delete the affected partial
download files in /var/lib/update-notifier/package-data-
downloads/partial/ and then try reinstalling again).

Title:
  "Content-Range: */<file size>" on non-416 responses considered invalid

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  APT only allows Content-Range: */<filesize> to be specified on a 416
  response. Sourceforge sometimes replies with that in a 302 redirect.

  We should probably just accept and silently ignore that content-range
  field for other values.
