** Description changed:

  When a new Framework is released, often packages are updated to take
  advantage of the new framework. When a device without the new framework
  requests available package updates, these new packages are included in
  the results, but trying to install them results in an error. The same
  applies where an updated package no longer supports the device's
  architecture.
  
  Part of this is server-side: the returned updates should be filtered
  based on the architecture of, and frameworks available on the device.
  But in order for the server to know which frameworks are available, the
  client needs to send them. In unity-scope-click, this data is sent in
  the X-Ubuntu-Architecture and X-Ubuntu-Frameworks headers [0]. It would
  be nice if we could do the same from the update manager, for
- consistency.
+ consistency. It should also send an Accept header with the value
+ application/json.
  
  I think this would need to be added to the system-update plugin's
- netowrk component [1].
+ network component [1].
