[Bug 1340287] [NEW] package-data-downloader sends unnecessary email

[Owen Dunn]

Public bug reported:

Description:    Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Release:        14.04

update-notifier 0.154.1

On a fresh installation of Ubuntu, I get an email from cron.daily:

/etc/cron.daily/update-notifier-common:
flashplugin-installer: downloading
http://archive.canonical.com/pool/partner/a/adobe-flashplugin/adobe-flashplu
gin_11.2.202.378.orig.tar.gz
Installing from local file /tmp/tmpKJ_ZKO.gz
Flash Plugin installed.

The update-notifier-common cronjob should only send an email if something
went _wrong_, and should be quiet if its job was successful.
