The update wouldn't apply for me, either with apt-get upgrade or apt-get
--reinstall, because it tries to configure update-notifier-common (and
fails) before updating it.

But manually editing /usr/lib/update-notifier/package-data-downloader to
replace lines like "if para.has_key('should-download'):" with "if
'should-download' in para:", as Julian said above, allowed the update to
apply. (I didn't want to try removing it because apt-get was going to
remove other packages.)
