Bug Description

Since I installed update-notifier-common (3.192.30.7), "apt-check --human-readable" doesn't output anything anymore.

It used to give an output like this:

187 packages can be updated.
128 of these updates are security updates.
To see these additional updates run: apt list --upgradable

If I run apt-check without "--human-readable" it outputs the available updates as expected:

"0;0"

Description: Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS
Release: 20.04
