[Bug 1532961] [NEW] Ctrl + C does not abort downloading a file

[Sworddragon]

Public bug reported:

I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 dev with update-notifier-common 3.164 and on
triggering a download (for example by executing "apt-get install
flashplugin-installer --reinstall") I'm noticing that the download can't
be aborted with Ctrl+C.
