Comment 28 for bug 1543280

Hi guys,

The bug is still here and the workaround from John Ortiz didn't solve it for me. After changing a directory permissions I've stopped to get warnings. But I've got some strange link to download:

> LC_ALL=C sudo /usr/lib/update-notifier/package-data-downloader

What is a "project/corefonts/the fonts/final" at the last error line - ?

(I have apt ver: 1.2.12~ubuntu16.04.1)
