Title:
  Restart notification after update contains a grammar error

Status in “update-notifier” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager

  After installing updates requiring a restart (kernel update, etc.), a
  notification box appears saying:

  "To complete your system update, please restart it."

  Here "it" can only refer to the unique noun phrase in the preceding
  clause, namely "system update". But the system update does not need to
  be restarted; it is the *system* that needs to be restarted. The
  following wording would be correct:

  "To finish updating your system, please restart it."
