Předmět: [Bug 1222654] Re: package ttf-mscorefonts-installer fails to
install/upgrade

"** Summary changed:

- package ttf-mscorefonts-installer 3.4+nmu1ubuntu1 failed to install/
upgrade

+ package ttf-mscorefonts-installer fails to install/upgrade

** Description changed:

- Similar to all the others. This stupid message occurs with every

- install of any app and every update, causing the process to error out.

- Canonical MUST FIX THIS THING before it makes me crazy. Find some

- public domain equivalents for those fonts. This erro showed up after I

- installed wine and had a hitch somehow, UBUNTU 13.04, then tried to

- install something else. I looked and found numerous remedies, but none

- of them worked, and now I have forgotten WHAT I tried. If I have to

- put up with this, I might as well go back to (Grrrr) Windows. DO I

- really need to say I FULLY EXPECT NO ERROR MESSAGE and I FULLY EXPECT

- that the ttf-mscorefonts-installer will complete without error and

- without harassing me with a STUPID license agreement? If I need the

- fonts for wine, OF COURSE I ACCEPT IT. So it should just alert me that

- I must abide by the agreement. Nobody reads the damned thing anyway. I

- certainly don't.

+ There are many bugs which are very similar, although the exact details

+ of version and error message might change, in the end they all boil down

+ to ttf-mscorefonts-installer being in a broken state from which it's

+ hard to recover.

- We really need a way to forcibly REINSTALL and ACCEPT THE LICENSE

- agreement (assuming that's the problem). How shall I do that?
