If we add a dpkg trigger for this, the trigger needs to succeed
regardless of whether the download was successful, otherwise we run into
the same problem again. Michael proposes the use of an update-notifier
interactive upgrade hook
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InteractiveUpgradeHooks) in this case, to
ensure the user gets feedback about the failure even though the package
has successfully installed.
Then the cron job can take care of retrying, and sending another
notification when it's decided the failure is "permanent".
