Title:
  package-data-downloader will reprocess successful downloads

Status in update-notifier package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  The fix for bug 1621629 was incorrect in that it will try to process
  every download again in the event that there is one failed hook file.
  This is illustrated by the new test test_only_retry_failure test in
  test_package-data-downloader.py.

  This was fixed during the development of yakkety, but xenial is still
  affected by this bug e.g.

  ======================================================================
  FAIL: test_only_retry_failure (test_package-data-downloader.ProcessDownloadRequestsTestCase)
  ----------------------------------------------------------------------
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/home/bdmurray/source-trees/update-notifier/update-notifier-3.168.2/tests/test_package-data-downloader.py", line 186, in test_only_retry_failure
      self.assertEqual(new_stamp_date, orig_stamp_date)
  AssertionError: 1479256982.3473485 != 1479256982.3033488

  The fix which was added in r891 of the bzr branch should be SRU'ed to
  Ubuntu 16.04.
