I just installed the .deb file from debian (https://packages.debian.org/jessie/all/ttf-mscorefonts- installer/download) and it worked without any issues. I used gdebi on the terminal, but I don't see why it shouldn't work with the software center installer.
Since the package from Debian works, why is it not just pushed to the repositories as is? -- 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
