[Bug 993672] Re: Ships malformed interactive upgrade hook which causes translations to be shown in the dialog

[Steve Langasek]

Sorry, I had noticed this issue originally when preparing the package-
data-downloader support, but couldn't work out why the file was being
generated wrong.  Since there were no translations available at the
time, I postponed dealing with it until after the upload... but
apparently a bunch of translations showed up in the meantime.

We definitely should get this fixed for .1.

  Ships malformed interactive upgrade hook which causes translations to

Bug description:
  The package-data-downloads-failed and package-data-downloads-failed-
  permanently interactive upgrade hooks shipped with update-notifier-
  common are malformed. In each file, the internationalized Name fields
  of every supported language are scrunched up in to one line. This
  breaks the Kubuntu upgrade hook notifier, making the window extremely
  large.

  Header fields of RFC822 messages must be terminated by a carriage-
  return/line-feed, as per Section 3.1.2 of RFC822.
