Emm,

change the codes of function write_package_names() in "/usr/lib/update-notifier/apt-check":

from
outstream.write("\n".join(map([p.name for p in pkgs])))

to
outstream.write("\n".join([p.name for p in pkgs]))

at least this suit for my requirement :)

Thanks a lot, that did the job for me too!!!!

Would be great if change could be committed to source code of the package :)
