Investigating further, it is quite possible the problem appeared in APT
1.2.15. Timeline of install and updates on my machine:
* 2016-07-19: U apt:amd64 1.2.10ubuntu1 -> 1.2.12~ubuntu16.04.1 # OS install
* 2016-09-26: I update-notifier-common:amd64 3.168.1 (automatic)
* 2016-09-26: I ttf-mscorefonts-installer:amd64 3.4+nmu1ubuntu2 # no problem
* 2016-11-04: U update-notifier-common:amd64 3.168.1 -> 3.168.2 # no problem
* 2016-11-14: U apt:amd64 1.2.12~ubuntu16.04.1 -> 1.2.15
* 2016-12-14: U apt:amd64 1.2.15 -> 1.2.15ubuntu0.2
* 2017-01-06: U update-notifier-common:amd64 3.168.2 -> 3.168.3 # PROBLEM
Between the time it ran with no problem on 2016-11-04 and the time the
problem appeared, APT received two updates. According to the ChangeLog,
the second one was a rather focused security fix. It is more likely that
the first one is at fault, this it contains many minor changes.
