Since November 14th, 2016 the installer (3.4+nmu1ubuntu2) has consistently failed on new Xenial installations. Before that date it used to work just fine. Debian version (3.6) works very well on Xenial and it's distributed to all our machines.
Meanwhile everything works OK on new Trusty installations... I can see different error messages when running "apt install --reinstall ttf-mscorefonts-installer" in a loop: Hash Sum mismatch The HTTP server sent an invalid Content-Range header 404 Not Found This seems to be an issue in how update-notifier approach downloads the fonts (due to server-side changes?) Maybe it is something similar to Bug #977812. Is there a way to make update-notifier/downloader dump all sent and received headers? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1607535 Title: ttf-mscorefonts-installer 3.4+nmu1ubuntu2 fails to install core fonts and should be updated to version 3.6 from Debian To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/msttcorefonts/+bug/1607535/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
