Ok, worked this out. My /etc/apt/sources.list contained:
deb http://no.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric-proposed restricted main multiverse universe
I changed this to:
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric-proposed restricted main multiverse universe
and I got further updates. This time with lzma. ;) So it seems the Norwegian mirror was just a little behind.
So, yes the fix works for me as well! :) Sorry for the confusion.
P.S. I still think having Software Center use xz to open lzma compressed data would be neater but at least the current solution fixes the problem.
